Speaker 8: Me just let me just get the rundown before she starts.

111
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:58,599
Speaker 8: So welcome to Welcome to everybody. This is a special

112
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 8: edition of Euil un University. So what we do once

113
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 8: a month if you're not familiar, So we have an

114
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 8: educational platform called Eyo University, which we are honored that

115
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:12,600
Speaker 8: actually is a member of Eile University, and we do

116
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 8: weekly webinars on a variety of different topics, so everything

117
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 8: from cryptocurrency to real estate to pretty.

118
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,720
Speaker 3: Much anything you pick it, and we do.

119
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 8: We bring experts in the fielding and they do webinars

120
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:30,479
Speaker 8: and it's a classroom style format, so they teach for

121
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,040
Speaker 8: about a half an hour forty minutes something like that,

122
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 8: and after that it's question and answer. We open up

123
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 8: for question answers for like twenty thirty minutes and it's

124
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 8: really dope. People get a lot of value. It's obviously

125
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:46,159
Speaker 8: a way more intimate setting than YouTube, and it's a

126
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 8: way to actually learn and actually interact.

127
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:50,479
Speaker 3: A difference from the podcast.

128
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 8: With the podcast is obviously tremendous, but the podcast, somebody's

129
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,479
Speaker 8: like just telling the story and you're listening to it,

130
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 8: where with the classes you actually get to actually engage

131
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 8: with the people, ask quesquestions, They have slides, PowerPoint presentation,

132
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 8: so it's more of a classroom type setting. So once

133
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 8: once a month we open it up to the public

134
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 8: on YouTube and this is called our open enrollment. So

135
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 8: the open enrollment is like you get to just see,

136
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,559
Speaker 8: you know, for yourself, and if you're interested in joining, great,

137
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,480
Speaker 8: If not, then you just get free information.

138
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 3: So this is this is this will be the last.

139
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:28,200
Speaker 8: Week of Eyo University for the year because we're taking

140
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 8: our winter break after this after this week is over.

141
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 8: But this week we have a class that we have

142
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:38,240
Speaker 8: orientation for all new members. We have orientation tomorrow at

143
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 8: seven pm. Just to kind of navigate you through the

144
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 8: website because what happens is that there's over seventy I

145
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 8: think there's seventy three past webinars, so they get archives,

146
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 8: so every single week you get archived on the website

147
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 8: Euyouniversity dot com. And then we have a Facebook group,

148
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 8: We have a movie club, we have a book club,

149
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 8: we have accountability groups.

150
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 3: So it's a lot of stuff going on.

151
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 8: So it's kind of hard to navigate, but it's not

152
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 8: an investment is the actual university. That's why we call

153
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 8: it Eyo University because we really really want the top

154
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 8: spot as far as educational platforms like Phoenix University, we

155
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 8: really want to take them out and become the household

156
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 8: name when it comes to education. So being that is

157
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 8: the case, this is actually the last week of Eyo

158
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:24,440

178
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 8: hvac or that'll be flooring, because we understand that, you know,

179
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:31,719
Speaker 8: you got to learn a variety of different things. You

180
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 8: just can't learn one particular thing, so h FLAG flooring.

181
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:38,360
Speaker 8: You know, we'll figure it out, but we're going to

182
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 8: have one trade class a month, and then we're also

183

00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 3: It's a it's a great it's a great story.

194
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 8: A black woman that was working for Fidelity making making

195
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:21,440
Speaker 8: a nice amount of money for Fidelity, and she was

196
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:24,319
Speaker 8: a member of Eyo University and just showed a great initiative.

197
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,319
Speaker 8: So you know, we practiced what we preached, grew economics empowerment.

198
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 8: We were able to take her from Fidelity, we were

199
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 8: able to match her pay, and we hire her as

200
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 8: a full time employee for Eyo University. So we're taking

201
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 8: this serious. It's not like just a random thing that

202
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:42,520
Speaker 8: we just put together. Like we really investing a lot

203
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 8: of money, time and energy into Eyo university and in

204
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:48,240
Speaker 8: twenty twenty one, we're really, really, really going to make

205
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:52,600
Speaker 8: a strong, strong push to make it uh the premier

206
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 8: learning experience for business, not just investing business period, all

207
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,600
Speaker 8: forms of the business. And we really want, you know,

208
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:03,839
Speaker 8: our thing to be as big as Harvard, Yale or

209
00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 8: any other these institutions. So yeah, so we are running

210
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 8: a last minute sale being at what I just said.

211
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 3: We invested a lot of infrastructure, so it's changing.

212
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:18,680
Speaker 8: So the price is actually doubling starting next week, but

213
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,560
Speaker 8: we're grandfathering anybody that wants to join, So now we're

214
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 8: running a forty percent off core and all of that.

215
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,480
Speaker 8: The price right now forty percent off is forty four

216
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:29,080
Speaker 8: hundred dollars for the entire year, and everybody that's been

217
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:31,520
Speaker 8: grandfathered in, like if you paid ninety nine dollars, your

218
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:35,600
Speaker 8: grandfathered in. So that's the great part is like the

219
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 8: price only goes up not because we're being greedy, because

220
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:39,720
Speaker 8: we're actually investing in it.

221
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,079
Speaker 3: We have we're looking to hire two more people.

222
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,400
Speaker 8: Probably in twenty twenty one, so this has turned into

223
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:47,960
Speaker 8: a whole operation. So if you're interested, the price will

224
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 8: be doubling next week. But right now it's forty percent

225
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 8: off with Code Freedom for tonight. I'll put it in

00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:17,200
Speaker 6: we appreciate all of you guys for being here. You

271
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 6: guys got me back on the screen. All right, let's

272
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 6: do this so building intentionally, how to buy land, development

273
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 6: and eventually build this city. That's what we're gonna get

274
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:31,680
Speaker 6: into tonight, y'all. Uh disclaimer, because what I do recognize

275
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 6: is that we got earners from around the world. So

276
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,080
Speaker 6: what I need for you all to understand is that

277
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 6: the things that I'm going to teach in this master

278
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:46,520
Speaker 6: class are going to not be the same in every state.

279
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:49,040
Speaker 6: So the most important thing that you can do with

280
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:53,359
Speaker 6: any information that you get is to research it for yourself,

281
00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 6: to get an expert in your area, whether that be

282
00:14:57,040 --> 00:15:02,840
Speaker 6: a real estate agent, a legit business consultant, business strategists,

283
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:06,120
Speaker 6: and of course a lawyer, someone that you can trust.

284
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:09,800
Speaker 6: Is always good to have a lawyer stay lawyered up.

285
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 6: So that's my disclaimer for tonight that these principles, these strategies,

286
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:18,000
Speaker 6: these things I'm gonna teach you, they are definitely probably

287
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 6: applicable to what it is you need to do in

288
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 6: your neck of the woods. But you have to find

289
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 6: out for yourself if that thing that I teach or

290
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 6: say tonight is going to have the same precedence in

291
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 6: the areas in what you plan on building and investing

292
00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 6: in so now that that side of the way. I'm

293
00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:43,480
Speaker 6: Ashley Scott. I am a realtor based in Stonecrest, Georgia.

294
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 6: I am the vice president of the Freedom Georgia Initiative.

295
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:51,480
Speaker 6: If you do not know my story, I am My

296
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 6: good friend Rene Walters purchased ninety six points seventy one

297
00:15:55,320 --> 00:16:00,600
Speaker 6: acres of land just outside of Tombsboro, Georgia, a little

298
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:05,720
Speaker 6: sleeping town that went viral over the summer after we

299
00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 6: had the unfortunate events of George Floyd being murdered, amaled

300
00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 6: Aubrey being murdered Red Sharp Brooks. All of the energy

301
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:20,720
Speaker 6: that we have been dealing with around social justice issues

302
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 6: made that article go viral and it caught my friend

303
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 6: Renee's attention, and her being an entrepreneur a visionary herself, said,

304
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:34,960
Speaker 6: you know what, if we're gonna make change, we need

305
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 6: to look at this town. And so she brought that

306
00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:41,720
Speaker 6: to me. We went to an open house, we visited,

307
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,200
Speaker 6: we did our due diligence, and we decided to invest

308
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 6: in building our own community and building a community that

309
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 6: is intentionally created to serve and meet the needs of

310
00:16:56,880 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 6: black families and black businesses. To try to create a

311
00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:06,159
Speaker 6: replicatable model for other families to buy land and to

312
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 6: create for themselves the kind of community that they deserve

313
00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:14,199
Speaker 6: to live in. So the Freedom Georgia Initiative is just

314
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:20,040
Speaker 6: getting started. We purchased our land July twenty twenty, so

315
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 6: that's been less than six months. I myself, as a realtor,

316
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,960
Speaker 6: have been a realtor for just over two and a

317
00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:32,440
Speaker 6: half years, and I've been in marketing for over ten

318
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,359
Speaker 6: years now. I have a company called the Mobile Maidens.

319
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:39,280
Speaker 6: I'm a wife, I'm a mom, I'm an entrepreneur, I'm

320
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:43,679
Speaker 6: a leader at heart. I am a proud HBCU graduate.

321
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:47,239
Speaker 6: Shout out to Bennett College for Women and all of

322
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 6: my ben at bells. Shout out to my sorority sisters

323
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:56,399
Speaker 6: of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Incorporated. And that's me in

324
00:17:56,440 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 6: a nutshell. I am very civically engaged and always working

325
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:08,720
Speaker 6: toward a progressive realization of a worthy ideal. So it's

326
00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 6: time to buy land. Y'all for building more intentionally. Everywhere

327
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:17,800
Speaker 6: you look, it's clear that there's a lot of concerns.

328
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 6: We've got COVID concerns. We don't know whether or not

329
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:25,200
Speaker 6: we are going to get over this hump. People are

330
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 6: concerned about density and about how quickly the virus can

331
00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:32,840
Speaker 6: spread because it's so highly contagious. And what we know

332
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:37,719
Speaker 6: is when you're talking about a highly contagious pandemic, it

333
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:42,600
Speaker 6: is going to have a bigger impact on dense areas.

334
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:46,120
Speaker 6: So we have to look at our housing situation as

335
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:49,239
Speaker 6: a whole when it comes to public our health and

336
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:52,960
Speaker 6: as a public health issue. Not only that, we've got

337
00:18:52,960 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 6: climate change happening. We got wildfires in California and Oregon

338
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:07,920
Speaker 6: that is actually dictating relocation and trends. People are, you know,

339
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:12,600
Speaker 6: literally looking at relocating not just for climate change, but

340
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,040
Speaker 6: because of affordable housing. We're in the midst of an

341
00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:19,719
Speaker 6: affordable housing crisis. We have more buyers than we have

342
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:23,240
Speaker 6: sellers at the moment, so this market and all of

343
00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:26,719
Speaker 6: the conditions around it, we are going to probably see

344
00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:29,520
Speaker 6: a huge influx of even.

345
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,119
Speaker 3: We have sellers at the moment.

346
00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:44,679
Speaker 6: So this market and all of the conditions over and

347
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:51,280
Speaker 6: food insecurity, land is the direct opportunity to solve that problem.

348
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:56,160
Speaker 6: We gotta buy land. Social injustice, we have been facing

349
00:19:56,640 --> 00:20:00,280
Speaker 6: high crime, high policing, and it creates a cycle of

350
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:04,280
Speaker 6: prison industrial complexes and until we buy land and change

351
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 6: how the structures of our communities actually look, we are

352
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:12,360
Speaker 6: going to continue to see social uprising and social injustice.

353
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:15,720
Speaker 6: We have to change what community looks like to really

354
00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:20,640
Speaker 6: have an impact on how we prison and police our communities,

355
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:28,280
Speaker 6: health disparities, this pandemic. Again, the reason why certain demographics

356
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:34,520
Speaker 6: were disproportionately affected by COVID is because of our lifestyles.

357
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,840
Speaker 6: We don't walk enough, you guys. We're not living in

358
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 6: well being. We're not spending time and outdoors forest bathing.

359
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,800
Speaker 6: You probably don't even know what forest bathing is, but

360
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:49,440
Speaker 6: look it up. I promise you you are.

361
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:50,120
Speaker 5: Going to come back to that.

362
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:57,720
Speaker 6: You will enjoy forest bathing. Right, So, buying land is

363
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:01,080
Speaker 6: genuinely a way and a me means for us to

364
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:05,919
Speaker 6: intentionally create a better world. So that's why I'm so

365
00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:08,760
Speaker 6: passionate about this, and I want to get into my

366
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:12,520
Speaker 6: little five step outline of building intentionally. So when I'm

367
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 6: gonna cover this evening is the land, the team, the money,

368
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,400
Speaker 6: the build, and the charter. I'm not gonna go very

369
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 6: deeply into the charter because you know that's a whole lot,

370
00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:26,880
Speaker 6: but I am gonna touch on it just a bit

371
00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:30,639
Speaker 6: but let's get started with a bit of insight before

372
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,359
Speaker 6: I start about But if we're going to talk about

373
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 6: developing land, we're gonna talk about buying, buying back the block.

374
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:40,880
Speaker 6: We have to have a bit of insight, a bit

375
00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:44,199
Speaker 6: of strategy when we talk about group economics, we have

376
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:47,239
Speaker 6: to really have a mindset shift. So one of the

377
00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:49,720
Speaker 6: things I want to just get us kind of positioned

378
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:52,280
Speaker 6: with one. I hope you got a notebook. If you

379
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,600
Speaker 6: don't go get it, because it's about to be some

380
00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:59,359
Speaker 6: note taking moments coming. Okay. If you don't leave with

381
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:02,439
Speaker 6: nothing else tonight, If you have no intention on buying

382
00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 6: any kind of land whatsoever, if you don't know if

383
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:10,160
Speaker 6: you'll ever develop any pieces of land, if you don't

384
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 6: want to even consider living in community, or buying and

385
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:18,440
Speaker 6: building the block, any of that, take this with you tonight.

386
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:24,040
Speaker 6: There are seven seven habits of highly effective people. And

387
00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 6: for you to be able to actually see something as magnet,

388
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:35,960
Speaker 6: something as big as buying land, developing it into a subdivision,

389
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 6: into a mixed use project, into a full blown community,

390
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:44,119
Speaker 6: an eco village, whatever it is that your heart is

391
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:47,400
Speaker 6: desiring to do with the land that you want to purchase,

392
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:50,920
Speaker 6: you're going to have to have some insight and some strategy,

393
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:55,600
Speaker 6: and your disposition in life is going to allow you

394
00:22:55,680 --> 00:23:00,280
Speaker 6: to be more successful versus less successful in this person suit,

395
00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:03,919
Speaker 6: because it will be easy to fail, and really to

396
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,240
Speaker 6: give up is what happens. You don't really fail, You

397
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:09,159
Speaker 6: give up when you get so many challenges. So if

398
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:12,360
Speaker 6: you don't have the right insight, the right strategy, you're

399
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:16,159
Speaker 6: going to give up when those challenges come. So I

400
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:19,520
Speaker 6: want to talk about these seven habits first before we

401
00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 6: get into the class, because I think mindset has everything

402
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 6: to do with building land and buying land and developing

403
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:32,000
Speaker 6: land and eventually building a city. Right, So number one,

404
00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:36,560
Speaker 6: be proactive, period poop. Begin with the end in mind.

405
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:40,959
Speaker 6: Beginning with the ending mind is essential in buying land

406
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:45,120
Speaker 6: and developing it. If you don't start with the end

407
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,720
Speaker 6: in mind, you're going to lose your shirt. You're not

408
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:52,359
Speaker 6: going to have an exit strategy, you're not going to

409
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:58,639
Speaker 6: be able to actually manifest the actual benefits, the profits,

410
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,320
Speaker 6: the things that you wanted from your land. If you

411
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:05,920
Speaker 6: don't start with the end in mind, put first things first.

412
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:10,680
Speaker 6: You can't tackle everything at once, and your core values

413
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:14,600
Speaker 6: and the end that you have in mind, that ultimate

414
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,800
Speaker 6: result that you want, whether it's some sum of money,

415
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:23,159
Speaker 6: whether it's a community that it's intentional and loving and thriving,

416
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:27,919
Speaker 6: whether it's creating a space and a place where your

417
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:31,200
Speaker 6: children feel safe, and then you can pass it down

418
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:35,119
Speaker 6: as an inheritance. Put first things first, because when you

419
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:38,879
Speaker 6: come up with challenges, if you remember those things that

420
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:44,320
Speaker 6: are priorities to you, you won't allow the challenges, the

421
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 6: petty arguments, the things that will happen with contractors and

422
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:52,160
Speaker 6: permitters and all of the different things that go on.

423
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,480
Speaker 6: You won't let it deter you, and you won't get

424
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,760
Speaker 6: caught up on things that easily beset you because you

425
00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 6: know what the in mind is and you put that

426
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:06,639
Speaker 6: first thing first. Right Four, Think when when you're not

427
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 6: going to be able to develop a piece of land

428
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 6: unless you have a win win attitude, a win win mindset.

429
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:16,640
Speaker 6: It's not just what's in it for me, and it's

430
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:20,760
Speaker 6: never a sum zero game. When you're talking about when

431
00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:24,240
Speaker 6: when it doesn't look like I beat this guy and

432
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,520
Speaker 6: that guy's a loser. You can't negotiate that way and

433
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:30,520
Speaker 6: you can't build community that way. You have to have

434
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 6: a win win mindset of I get something. My brother

435
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:38,760
Speaker 6: gets something, I get something. My contractor gets something. I

436
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:42,720
Speaker 6: get something, my county gets something. I get something, my

437
00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:48,119
Speaker 6: economic development authority gets something. It's a win win for everybody.

438
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:52,760
Speaker 6: Seek first to understand, then to be understood before you

439
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:58,399
Speaker 6: go rah rah rah. Make sure that you understand why

440
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 6: things are happening in the fashion of which they're happening.

441
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,439
Speaker 6: It could be something that came up in your build

442
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:10,400
Speaker 6: or your project that was unforeseeable. So to understand first

443
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:14,440
Speaker 6: is always a great practice when you're talking about going

444
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:19,160
Speaker 6: through this path of buying and developing land, and then

445
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 6: to be understood. Make sure that you are speaking up

446
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:27,040
Speaker 6: for yourself, that you are keeping your core principles and

447
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 6: the core values of your project in mind. With the

448
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:37,360
Speaker 6: people you are working with. Synergize. Look for ways that

449
00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:44,280
Speaker 6: allow things to get momentum, to work together seamlessly, strategic partnerships,

450
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:47,720
Speaker 6: people who are just a good fit. I have some

451
00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:51,200
Speaker 6: great stories that I don't even have time to share,

452
00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:55,120
Speaker 6: but anybody that we have brought onto our Freedom Georgia

453
00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:59,679
Speaker 6: Initiative project has had good synergry and with very strategic

454
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:02,720
Speaker 6: about never working with somebody we don't like, we don't

455
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:05,359
Speaker 6: want to look at or that we think is not

456
00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:08,280
Speaker 6: going to have to share the common goal, because if

457
00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:10,320
Speaker 6: I'm going to do business with you, I want to

458
00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:12,399
Speaker 6: make sure I feel good when I'm doing that business.

459
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 6: And when you're doing the business of buying land and

460
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:18,960
Speaker 6: developing it. You're going to be in business with a

461
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:22,760
Speaker 6: person for a long time, at least eighteen to twenty

462
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 6: four months, and you want to make sure that there's

463
00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:30,399
Speaker 6: synergy with the partners and the consultants and the contractors

464
00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:34,119
Speaker 6: and the people you choose on your journey. Sharpen the

465
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:40,520
Speaker 6: saw always I personally develop yourself, personally develop your team,

466
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:44,920
Speaker 6: find new innovative information in ways to do things. So

467
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:48,119
Speaker 6: keep that strategy in mind. It will serve you for

468
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:50,880
Speaker 6: what I'm getting ready to teach tonight. It will serve

469
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:53,560
Speaker 6: you if you get off the YouTube right now, take

470
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:56,320
Speaker 6: it with you, Okay. And that was Seven Habits of

471
00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:59,000
Speaker 6: Highly Effective People. That's one of the books. That is

472
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:03,919
Speaker 6: my suggested refe by Stephen Covey. Let's get into it

473
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:06,600
Speaker 6: the land. I'm going to talk about why buy land.

474
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:11,480
Speaker 6: We're going to discuss world versus urban, the process, best features,

475
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:13,879
Speaker 6: and things to avoid. Just so you can see in

476
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:18,080
Speaker 6: the corner over there. That is my little land that

477
00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:21,280
Speaker 6: I have purchased with my good friends and family, And

478
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:24,480
Speaker 6: that was our first event, the big Black camp out,

479
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:28,240
Speaker 6: So you're getting to get a little glimpse of where

480
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:32,560
Speaker 6: we are beginning. Our developments got beautiful views, and I

481
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:39,640
Speaker 6: just love it every time I go. Why buy land, Well,

482
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 6: raw land investments are typically less competitive than residential real

483
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 6: estate in the market right now. I don't know if

484
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 6: any of you guys are in the market, maybe looking

485
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,840
Speaker 6: to buy a home, and you have been putting offers

486
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,440
Speaker 6: on houses over and over and over again, and it's

487
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 6: like every time you look, you're missing out on a

488
00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,479
Speaker 6: chance to get the home of your dreams. You might

489
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,240
Speaker 6: be an You're putting in offers and offers, and all

490
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 6: of your offers are getting passed up because it's a

491
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:08,920
Speaker 6: seller's market. Inventory is really low, particularly where I am

492
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:12,560
Speaker 6: in my market of Atlanta, Georgia, because interest rates are

493
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:17,840
Speaker 6: just so low and this pandemic makes people uncertain about

494
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:20,280
Speaker 6: where they may move and where they might want to go.

495
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 6: They aren't putting their homes on the market. So we've

496
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 6: got a whole lot of buyers, but not a lot

497
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 6: of sellers. So that's creating an artificial inflation of the

498
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 6: prices in the market at the moment. So we really

499
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:38,480
Speaker 6: can look towards land investments as a major opportunity, especially

500
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:41,240
Speaker 6: when we look at these relocation trends, to be able

501
00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:44,320
Speaker 6: to purchase a piece of land and develop it to

502
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:49,000
Speaker 6: really address this affordable housing crisis and to make yourself

503
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:53,560
Speaker 6: some money. Again, it's less competitive than residential real estate

504
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:58,240
Speaker 6: when you buy land. Sellers of raw land investments are

505
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 6: a little more likely to be able to finance through

506
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:04,160
Speaker 6: owner finance. And now I'm gonna touch a little bit

507
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:07,200
Speaker 6: more on that when we get to the money section.

508
00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:12,840
Speaker 6: Purchase price and holding costs are lower with rawland. So

509
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,720
Speaker 6: that's something that a lot of times we look at

510
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:20,160
Speaker 6: as real estate investors are holding costs over time, especially

511
00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:23,520
Speaker 6: if you are someone who does birds and buys and holds,

512
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:27,520
Speaker 6: you're gonna want to you have higher holding costs, insurance

513
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:31,000
Speaker 6: and taxes and all of the things that you have

514
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:34,240
Speaker 6: to maintain when you're holding an actual piece of real

515
00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 6: property if you buy land as an investment and don't

516
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:41,200
Speaker 6: develop it but simply hold it, especially if it's in

517
00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:45,760
Speaker 6: a location that's trendy, a location that's likely to appreciate

518
00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:49,120
Speaker 6: in value over time. That is an exceptional piece of

519
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:52,479
Speaker 6: property that can then generate a profit for you, a

520
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 6: return on your investment, and you can just hold it

521
00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:59,600
Speaker 6: for time and hopefully it does become the next place

522
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 6: for gentrification or revitalization and you're able to have that

523
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:06,840
Speaker 6: money that might have been sending in the bank turn

524
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:10,200
Speaker 6: into a chance to sell the property or develop the

525
00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:12,680
Speaker 6: area and build a home and sell it for a

526
00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:18,360
Speaker 6: large price. So that's the value of purchase price and

527
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:23,280
Speaker 6: holding costs that are lower. We're all land the appreciation potential.

528
00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:27,040
Speaker 6: I think I just mentioned that the appreciation potential can

529
00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 6: remain high even with less than stellar market conditions, which

530
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 6: is where we are now. You can buy a piece

531
00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:36,400
Speaker 6: of land for affordable price right now, hold it, and

532
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:40,760
Speaker 6: then when this wealth transfer finishes, you might be able

533
00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:44,200
Speaker 6: to have a nice return on appreciation on your land.

534
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:49,120
Speaker 6: There are countless development opportunities for the raw land. There

535
00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:53,280
Speaker 6: is not just developing the land. You can put trees

536
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 6: on the land and sell the lumber. You can create

537
00:31:56,080 --> 00:32:01,480
Speaker 6: Airbnb experiences. You can rent the land out for cultural

538
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:06,000
Speaker 6: events and festivals. There is farming. You can lease the land.

539
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 6: You can do so many things with ray land. The

540
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:15,480
Speaker 6: only limit is your imagination. If you notice at the

541
00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:22,240
Speaker 6: bottom fine land on www dot landslip dot com, go

542
00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:25,960
Speaker 6: visit landflip dot com. When you finish this masterclass, start

543
00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 6: doing your research, Start seeing where the land is cheap,

544
00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:33,200
Speaker 6: start seeing where people are look for trends where people

545
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:36,280
Speaker 6: are moving to, and then go look at buying land

546
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:41,960
Speaker 6: in those areas. Google is your friend rural versus urban.

547
00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:46,680
Speaker 6: There are I like rural land. That's just me. You're

548
00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:51,800
Speaker 6: gonna find more rural land available at larger acreages at

549
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 6: more affordable prices than you will in urban areas. Urban

550
00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:01,200
Speaker 6: areas have all the conveniences we already know. It's close

551
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:05,360
Speaker 6: to the walmart, it's close to the jobs, it's close

552
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 6: to all the things, the nightlife, the stuff you love.

553
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:13,080
Speaker 6: But there's setbacks to both sides of the fence. You again,

554
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:16,200
Speaker 6: beginning with the end in mind, have to have clarity

555
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:18,640
Speaker 6: on what it is you want to do with your investment,

556
00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:21,680
Speaker 6: what it is you want to accomplish once you purchase

557
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:25,320
Speaker 6: your land. If you're interested in purchasing land in an

558
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:29,480
Speaker 6: urban area, you definitely want to find something that's going

559
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 6: to be in a trendy area. That doesn't have a

560
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:37,240
Speaker 6: lot of zoning and ordinances, But be mindful that you

561
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:40,640
Speaker 6: need to check the zoning and ordinances when you invest

562
00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:44,280
Speaker 6: in purchase urban land, because when you're an urban land

563
00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:48,760
Speaker 6: is land that is inside of a major metropolitan area.

564
00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:50,520
Speaker 6: For those of you who are like, what do you

565
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:53,640
Speaker 6: mean by that, So, if you're looking at a place

566
00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:57,800
Speaker 6: like Metro Atlanta and even the little city surrounding it

567
00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:05,400
Speaker 6: like Decatur and Smyrna, those are urban areas with high density,

568
00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:08,880
Speaker 6: lots of traffic, and typically there's more crime in the area.

569
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:13,359
Speaker 6: They're typically higher police and again there's benefits like proximity

570
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:17,120
Speaker 6: to shopping, work in nightlife. There's more noise pollution, there's

571
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:21,760
Speaker 6: light pollution, actual pollution. So when you're looking at rural land,

572
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:24,920
Speaker 6: there's a lot of grants and USDA loans that might

573
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:28,160
Speaker 6: be available to you, as well as opportunity zones. You

574
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:32,760
Speaker 6: can find opportunity zones both in urban areas and rural areas.

575
00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:35,440
Speaker 6: You need to be able to google it, go find

576
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:38,920
Speaker 6: opportunity zones. You put the zip code or the address

577
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 6: of the area you're interested in investing in to be

578
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,880
Speaker 6: able to find out whether or not it is in

579
00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:51,120
Speaker 6: an opportunity zone. Rural has minimum or no zoning or ordinances.

580
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:55,920
Speaker 6: Typically with your rural land, it's more of the countryside.

581
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:59,400
Speaker 6: It's usually about forty five minutes outside of the downtown

582
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:04,600
Speaker 6: or center city areas, so there's less density, there's less traffic,

583
00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:08,680
Speaker 6: there's usually less crime, less policing. You might have a

584
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:13,839
Speaker 6: sheriff's department versus a metropolitan police department, so it's a

585
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:20,360
Speaker 6: different feel altogether. It's more abundant with trees, nature and

586
00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:27,400
Speaker 6: natural resources, less noise pollution, less light pollution, less actual pollution,

587
00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:35,920
Speaker 6: and there is the challenge of being further away from

588
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:39,480
Speaker 6: your modern conveniences. You might not be able to roll

589
00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:42,720
Speaker 6: up to the walmart. It probably close at nine ten o'clock.

590
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:46,080
Speaker 6: Some of the stories you like, but you also again

591
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:48,880
Speaker 6: I'll say, begin with the end in mind. What is

592
00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:52,600
Speaker 6: it you want to see with your land investment when

593
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:56,200
Speaker 6: you purchase, when getting started in land investment, I'm going

594
00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:59,440
Speaker 6: to say it again, it's vitally important to understand the

595
00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:03,160
Speaker 6: zoning the area. The way to understand what the zoning

596
00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:06,440
Speaker 6: laws are is simply to get what your real estate

597
00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:11,400
Speaker 6: agent to check out, the tax assessor's office, your county

598
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:15,759
Speaker 6: manager's office, your city office. There's usually a website that

599
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:20,279
Speaker 6: has zoning and ordinances. You can call your zoning department,

600
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:24,280
Speaker 6: your local zoning department in the city, or the areas

601
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:28,560
Speaker 6: you're interested in to find out what the zoning restrictions are.

602
00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:38,360
Speaker 6: Zoning is essentially a map overlay that tells our city planners, developers,

603
00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:44,600
Speaker 6: economic developers, commercial developers where they can build in the

604
00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:51,360
Speaker 6: city's master planning. Is this area available for industrial stuff,

605
00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:55,560
Speaker 6: This area is available for residential and mixed use, this

606
00:36:55,680 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 6: area is available for commercial. So knowing where what the

607
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:03,480
Speaker 6: zoning is on the parcel of land that you intend

608
00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:07,000
Speaker 6: to purchase is essential because you won't be able to

609
00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:10,600
Speaker 6: build what you want to build without a lot of hoopla.

610
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:14,719
Speaker 6: I say hoopla. What I mean is going through the

611
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:20,400
Speaker 6: process of having a zoning variance issued by your city

612
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:24,440
Speaker 6: council or your zoning department. It's a process, it can

613
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:27,800
Speaker 6: be done. That's the great thing about America, Baby, anything

614
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:30,719
Speaker 6: is possible. You just need to be able to negotiate.

615
00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:35,000
Speaker 6: But just know that that may be a challenge. Property

616
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:42,120
Speaker 6: buying timeline, so there's a plethora of timelines that are

617
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:45,520
Speaker 6: possible in real estate development, and it's going to be

618
00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:49,120
Speaker 6: based on the type of project that you're building. When

619
00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:54,480
Speaker 6: you're purchasing land for development, know that the more intricate

620
00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:59,440
Speaker 6: your plans are, the more the larger the parcel is.

621
00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:03,680
Speaker 6: The amounts of acres that you have will dictate your

622
00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:08,880
Speaker 6: timeline just as well as your budget. So these timelines

623
00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:13,759
Speaker 6: are very loose. But I bought and I was able

624
00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:18,000
Speaker 6: to organize my nineteen families and buy that ninety six

625
00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 6: acres of land in less than forty five days with

626
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:25,640
Speaker 6: my collective. That's not normal, so don't think that that's

627
00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 6: a typical result at all. You can take years to

628
00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:33,080
Speaker 6: find the perfect piece of land if you have an

629
00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:36,440
Speaker 6: extensive project and vision in your mind for what it

630
00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:41,840
Speaker 6: is you foresee building. But ultimately it will be varying

631
00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:44,799
Speaker 6: according to what it is you plan to do in

632
00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:47,799
Speaker 6: the area, of course, as well where you plan to

633
00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:50,640
Speaker 6: do it. Because of the pandemic, things that have also

634
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:55,640
Speaker 6: slowed down significantly, and you have the fact that they're

635
00:38:55,680 --> 00:39:00,600
Speaker 6: social distancing issues keeping projects from moving as quickly as

636
00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:05,240
Speaker 6: they typically would because of being able to keep labor

637
00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:09,400
Speaker 6: on the project. It's a lot going on. But visioning

638
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:12,360
Speaker 6: is the first step to your property buying timeline. I

639
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:15,560
Speaker 6: keep saying it begin with the end in mind. Knowing

640
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:18,120
Speaker 6: what you want to do with your land is essential

641
00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:21,319
Speaker 6: and it's going to help lead your search. You need

642
00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:23,880
Speaker 6: to take a few days and get clear about what

643
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:26,280
Speaker 6: the community is you want to build. If you're building

644
00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:29,960
Speaker 6: an intentional community, if you want a farm, if you

645
00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:34,440
Speaker 6: plan on building affordable housing, if you plan on just

646
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:38,480
Speaker 6: putting up one house and then doing the next project.

647
00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:43,399
Speaker 6: Just know what your goals are. Then that goal will

648
00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:46,680
Speaker 6: help dictate your search. Because there's a lot of reasons,

649
00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:53,359
Speaker 6: in different motivations for why people are purchasing lands in

650
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:57,520
Speaker 6: this current state that we are in in America. So

651
00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:01,200
Speaker 6: whatever your reason is for why you want to build

652
00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:04,520
Speaker 6: buy land, and you feel pulled to buy land, write

653
00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:08,279
Speaker 6: the vision, make it plain, and go searching for the

654
00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:11,680
Speaker 6: land that's going to be most ideal for what it

655
00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:15,640
Speaker 6: is you see yourself doing with this land development. It

656
00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:18,040
Speaker 6: can take seven days, it could take one hundred and

657
00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:20,560
Speaker 6: eighty days. I had a person who took my seminar

658
00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:23,319
Speaker 6: how to Buy Land using group Economics that says she's

659
00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:27,560
Speaker 6: been looking for land for over two years because she

660
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:32,840
Speaker 6: has certain criteria for her property buying. That being that

661
00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:38,040
Speaker 6: it has access to water, that it has flat areas

662
00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:42,480
Speaker 6: for food plots and flat areas for a home site,

663
00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:45,520
Speaker 6: and it needs to have road frontage and access, and

664
00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:48,759
Speaker 6: it needs to be just in this perfect location in

665
00:40:48,840 --> 00:40:51,840
Speaker 6: Georgia for it to work. And so when you have

666
00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:58,319
Speaker 6: those criterias and those fairy exact specifications, it can take

667
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:05,200
Speaker 6: your property search much much longer. So that time frame

668
00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:09,200
Speaker 6: is a larger time frame because it varies based on

669
00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:14,319
Speaker 6: what you want. Due dilaging. Due diliging is your due

670
00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:18,359
Speaker 6: diligence period. You gotta do the research. You've got to hurt,

671
00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:23,239
Speaker 6: you've got to hire the inspector, the appraiser. You need

672
00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:27,160
Speaker 6: to do your soil samples, your percolation tests, things that

673
00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:29,680
Speaker 6: are going to let you know that the site you

674
00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:34,760
Speaker 6: are selecting is going to be adequate for your farming,

675
00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:40,000
Speaker 6: for your building, for your community developing. So that due

676
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:43,239
Speaker 6: diligence period can be fourteen to twenty one days, I've

677
00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:45,799
Speaker 6: seen them go as long as thirty days. And you

678
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:50,520
Speaker 6: can always renew that time frame or extend that time

679
00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:55,000
Speaker 6: frame as necessary with what's called an amendment to the contract.

680
00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:58,720
Speaker 6: Once you've placed your offer on the parcel of land

681
00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:03,600
Speaker 6: that you're interested in perk, So that offer comes after

682
00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:06,799
Speaker 6: you found that search. I should have added that as

683
00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:09,920
Speaker 6: a part of my timeline. But you make an offer

684
00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:13,160
Speaker 6: on that parcel once you've decided that you know what,

685
00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:16,200
Speaker 6: it's got everything I need, and now you really make

686
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:18,960
Speaker 6: sure it has everything you need. You test the water.

687
00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:22,080
Speaker 6: If there's a well, you get the well tested. If

688
00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:25,640
Speaker 6: there is a lot of trees, you get the landscape

689
00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:27,440
Speaker 6: or guide to come in and give you a quote

690
00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:30,439
Speaker 6: for clearing the trees. You need to do as much

691
00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:34,160
Speaker 6: research as you can on the political landscape of the area,

692
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:37,560
Speaker 6: who's coming into the area to develop it, what's the

693
00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:41,640
Speaker 6: demographics of the area. This is very important because you

694
00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:44,520
Speaker 6: can't get a Whole Foods or Starbucks unless the people

695
00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:48,040
Speaker 6: who live there make a certain income annually and they

696
00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:50,760
Speaker 6: on top of that, it needs to be a certain

697
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:54,759
Speaker 6: amount of people who live inside of the area for

698
00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:57,120
Speaker 6: them to want to come to the area. So all

699
00:42:57,160 --> 00:43:01,120
Speaker 6: of these things, this information is essential for you deciding

700
00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:03,640
Speaker 6: whether or not your investment is going to be a

701
00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:08,720
Speaker 6: viable investment. For you, knowing whether or not the land

702
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:12,680
Speaker 6: is inside of city limits or outside of city limits.

703
00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:15,680
Speaker 6: If the land is outside of city limits, this is

704
00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:19,200
Speaker 6: your chance to build a city. If the land is

705
00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:22,919
Speaker 6: inside of city limits, ain't no help for you. You're gonna

706
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:26,640
Speaker 6: have to just do what's going on, or become civically

707
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:31,440
Speaker 6: engaged and change the landscape of your community through politics

708
00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:37,760
Speaker 6: and civil activism. Closing typically takes forty five to sixty

709
00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:41,120
Speaker 6: days on land, that is so that they can get

710
00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:46,359
Speaker 6: the appreciation the survey. The survey is going to be

711
00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:51,719
Speaker 6: priced according to how much land you are buying. It's

712
00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:56,240
Speaker 6: tempting in juicy to say I'm gonna go buy four hundred,

713
00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:59,040
Speaker 6: six hundred acres of land, and you might find four

714
00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:01,640
Speaker 6: hundred or six hun your acres of land at a

715
00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:04,879
Speaker 6: price that you could have never thought was possible. But

716
00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:08,760
Speaker 6: you have to look at the cost of serving that land,

717
00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:12,919
Speaker 6: of developing that land, and knowing what your goals are.

718
00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:17,520
Speaker 6: It can take longer than you know. It can take

719
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:19,960
Speaker 6: forty five to sixty days to actually close on it.

720
00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:25,000
Speaker 6: And so depending on the situation such as you're financing appraisals,

721
00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:29,360
Speaker 6: due diligence, concern, tidal order, all of that can push

722
00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:33,160
Speaker 6: your closing further away than the forty five and sixty days.

723
00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:37,640
Speaker 6: You want to work very closely with your real estate agent.

724
00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:42,640
Speaker 6: You're closing attorney as well as your lender to make

725
00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:46,480
Speaker 6: sure that this project that you're doing is moving along okay.

726
00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:52,680
Speaker 6: Best features you can find when you're looking for land.

727
00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:59,160
Speaker 6: You're looking for scenic views, fresh water sources such as lakes, rivers, aquifers,

728
00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:05,000
Speaker 6: spring You're looking for access to road frontage and easements.

729
00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:09,840
Speaker 6: You are looking for access to utilities. You are looking

730
00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:15,360
Speaker 6: again for that unincorporated county land that has minimal ordinances.

731
00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:19,120
Speaker 6: You're looking for places that are home site ready flat

732
00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:21,600
Speaker 6: where you can get on there, you can take that

733
00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:25,320
Speaker 6: road and you can build your dream home and get

734
00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:29,719
Speaker 6: it pop and quick. Road systems and food plots if

735
00:45:29,719 --> 00:45:32,440
Speaker 6: you're into gardening. Those are the things that you're going

736
00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:35,880
Speaker 6: to be looking for when you look at buying rawland.

737
00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:43,280
Speaker 6: That's going to be essential features. Challenge is to avoid uneven, rugged,

738
00:45:43,600 --> 00:45:47,600
Speaker 6: undesirable topography. If it looks like you wouldn't want to

739
00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:50,239
Speaker 6: walk there, live there, If animals don't look like they

740
00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:53,080
Speaker 6: want to walk there, live there, it's probably not a

741
00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:56,520
Speaker 6: good investment. It's probably not the place you want to

742
00:45:56,600 --> 00:45:59,920
Speaker 6: try to put down routs for a development or a community.

743
00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:05,239
Speaker 6: Gridlock land you never want to play the game of

744
00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:09,000
Speaker 6: buying a piece of land that's in the middle of

745
00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:15,040
Speaker 6: four other five six other people's properties and lands and

746
00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:20,719
Speaker 6: there's no clear deeded easement for how you can access

747
00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:25,200
Speaker 6: that land. That's a no go. You can work to

748
00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:31,680
Speaker 6: negotiate an easement avoid that if possible. No water, no well,

749
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:36,000
Speaker 6: no county water. That's another challenge. That's another expensive piece

750
00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:40,120
Speaker 6: of infrastructure. You can essentially put a well into your land,

751
00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:44,319
Speaker 6: assuming that there is some kind of aquifier or groundwater

752
00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:48,640
Speaker 6: that is down there. You just need to understand that

753
00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:52,840
Speaker 6: when you put or dig a well for water, because

754
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:57,319
Speaker 6: there's no county water hookup or no public water works

755
00:46:57,680 --> 00:47:01,239
Speaker 6: in place, that's going to be dictated a bout how

756
00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:07,800
Speaker 6: deep your well contractor has to go into the ground

757
00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:12,359
Speaker 6: to actually find that water. So that can be a

758
00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:18,680
Speaker 6: cost that is very hard to determine. But you can

759
00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:22,520
Speaker 6: talk to the local person in the area who does

760
00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:27,279
Speaker 6: wells and septic tanks, because they're going to know what

761
00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:30,919
Speaker 6: the going rate is in your geographic location that you're

762
00:47:30,920 --> 00:47:35,320
Speaker 6: interested in developing because they're already digging there and typically

763
00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:39,239
Speaker 6: the water table the ground water for a well is

764
00:47:39,320 --> 00:47:43,800
Speaker 6: going to be about the same for a geographical region

765
00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:46,759
Speaker 6: or area, so you have to get in touch with

766
00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:52,080
Speaker 6: that local expert. Challenge is to avoid again no public utilities.

767
00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:55,839
Speaker 6: That's another hassle unless you have intentions on living off

768
00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:59,840
Speaker 6: the grid, installing solar power, getting with Moses West for

769
00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:06,720
Speaker 6: his atmos feared water generation technology being able to collect

770
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:09,920
Speaker 6: rain water like you, unless you're on that life and

771
00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:15,160
Speaker 6: you about that survivor, you gonna need public utilities. So

772
00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:21,200
Speaker 6: do not avoid buying land in places that have no

773
00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:27,160
Speaker 6: access to public utilities. Also avoid buying land in areas

774
00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:33,600
Speaker 6: that have overly restrictive zoning regulations, places that have very

775
00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:37,959
Speaker 6: staunch conservatives and they don't want you know, cutting down

776
00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:42,120
Speaker 6: trees or places that you know are laxed even with

777
00:48:42,160 --> 00:48:47,040
Speaker 6: their zoning regulations and they just let anybody build whatever anywhere.

778
00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:50,360
Speaker 6: And now you're dealing with toxic water being dumped into

779
00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:54,239
Speaker 6: your neighborhood. So you there's a fine line to that.

780
00:48:54,360 --> 00:48:58,080
Speaker 6: You just need to again do your due diligence and

781
00:48:58,280 --> 00:49:02,919
Speaker 6: again exorbitant permit fees. Find out what the fees are

782
00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:06,160
Speaker 6: in advance for the area you're interested in purchasing land,

783
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:08,640
Speaker 6: and when it comes to permits, you can find that

784
00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:12,879
Speaker 6: from your tax assessor's office, your county manager office what

785
00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:17,480
Speaker 6: the cost, or your city manager, your city zoning office.

786
00:49:17,600 --> 00:49:20,080
Speaker 6: They will tell you what the fees are, what the

787
00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:24,480
Speaker 6: process is. When you are building something that is a

788
00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:29,440
Speaker 6: commercial project, the fees tend to be exorbitantly higher than

789
00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:34,360
Speaker 6: a traditional residential project. So in any case, be mindful

790
00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:36,680
Speaker 6: of this. I'm going to go back and mention for

791
00:49:36,840 --> 00:49:42,400
Speaker 6: restrictive zoning regulations you want to build those types of

792
00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:46,080
Speaker 6: projects in have to be open to that. You need

793
00:49:46,080 --> 00:49:50,359
Speaker 6: to go find out again, go to your zoning an

794
00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:54,440
Speaker 6: ordinance department in your city in the counties, call them

795
00:49:54,520 --> 00:49:56,680
Speaker 6: up if it's an area that you don't currently live

796
00:49:56,719 --> 00:49:59,759
Speaker 6: in that you're looking to invest in, and find out

797
00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:03,400
Speaker 6: what they might have on the books as it relates

798
00:50:03,440 --> 00:50:09,479
Speaker 6: to container homes, manufactured homes, eco friendly homes, all these

799
00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:12,120
Speaker 6: new innovative things that you might be interested in doing.

800
00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:14,160
Speaker 6: Because I know we got some innovative people out here

801
00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:17,000
Speaker 6: who want to do some innovative things. So find out

802
00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:21,759
Speaker 6: first before you buy the team. All right, So now

803
00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:24,040
Speaker 6: that we've talked about the land, we're gonna go ahead

804
00:50:24,040 --> 00:50:26,600
Speaker 6: and get into the team. I'm always happy to see

805
00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:31,279
Speaker 6: my beautiful team on the screen there. That is my

806
00:50:31,920 --> 00:50:37,279
Speaker 6: Freedom family. Shout out to the Freedom nineteen and my

807
00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:41,520
Speaker 6: business partners Renee and Laura Riley Cooper. I love y'all,

808
00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:45,160
Speaker 6: but you have to have a team, y'all. You cannot

809
00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:49,000
Speaker 6: do this by yourself. Even if you decide to be

810
00:50:49,480 --> 00:50:55,880
Speaker 6: a sole proprietor you have to. I still have team

811
00:50:56,040 --> 00:51:00,520
Speaker 6: members in the area that are going to support you.

812
00:51:00,640 --> 00:51:03,879
Speaker 6: That's going to lift you up. People who have certain expertise.

813
00:51:03,960 --> 00:51:06,400
Speaker 6: You're going to need consultants, So let's get into this

814
00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:14,239
Speaker 6: partners versus consultants. When you start taking on a development project,

815
00:51:14,640 --> 00:51:18,560
Speaker 6: your partners are your LLC members or your corporation members,

816
00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:20,759
Speaker 6: the people who put up the money with you to

817
00:51:20,920 --> 00:51:24,200
Speaker 6: start this business. These are the people who are bringing

818
00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:30,279
Speaker 6: the mental capacity to talent to this project. They get

819
00:51:30,320 --> 00:51:33,479
Speaker 6: paid later when they share in the profits. They are

820
00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:36,600
Speaker 6: accountable for the decision making to help grow the business

821
00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:40,440
Speaker 6: or to make sure that this venture is profitable, and

822
00:51:40,600 --> 00:51:44,600
Speaker 6: they bear the financial losses if the venture fails. That

823
00:51:44,840 --> 00:51:50,480
Speaker 6: is a partner consultants different world. Your consultant gets paid

824
00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:53,200
Speaker 6: now as they do the work or as you're doing

825
00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:56,920
Speaker 6: the work so that you can be successful. They have

826
00:51:57,000 --> 00:52:00,680
Speaker 6: a fiduciary and an ethical duty to do right by you.

827
00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:03,960
Speaker 6: These are your realtors, These are your lawyers. These are

828
00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:07,640
Speaker 6: the people who have went to school and are specialized

829
00:52:08,080 --> 00:52:11,279
Speaker 6: in doing what they do. You need these consultants in

830
00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:14,240
Speaker 6: your life, and they have a duty once they bring

831
00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:16,800
Speaker 6: you on as once they bring you on as a client,

832
00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:20,120
Speaker 6: to do right by you. But if they mess it up,

833
00:52:20,239 --> 00:52:22,600
Speaker 6: or you mess it up, or some factors mess it up,

834
00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:25,560
Speaker 6: they don't bear any of the financial loss if the

835
00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:29,200
Speaker 6: ventures fail. So just know who your partners are and

836
00:52:29,239 --> 00:52:33,040
Speaker 6: who your consultants are. And if you're really strategic, you

837
00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:36,560
Speaker 6: make the people who are the experts your partner and

838
00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:39,640
Speaker 6: your land development venture. So we're going to get into that.

839
00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:43,799
Speaker 6: Your team players. You need someone who is administrative or

840
00:52:43,840 --> 00:52:48,680
Speaker 6: business oriented. You need somebody who's exceptionally credit worthy. You

841
00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:52,120
Speaker 6: need somebody who has a positive track record in real estate.

842
00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:57,240
Speaker 6: Somebody who is a general contractor they've been a flipper

843
00:52:57,400 --> 00:53:01,400
Speaker 6: rehabber for the last five years. Somebody has to know

844
00:53:01,440 --> 00:53:06,040
Speaker 6: what they are doing on your team. In that partner capacity,

845
00:53:06,360 --> 00:53:10,440
Speaker 6: you have to have a partner who has that track record.

846
00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:14,279
Speaker 6: You need a spokesperson and in some instances you're gonna

847
00:53:14,280 --> 00:53:19,440
Speaker 6: want to have somebody who's an ally if the people

848
00:53:19,480 --> 00:53:22,920
Speaker 6: you want to purchase the land from don't necessarily look

849
00:53:23,040 --> 00:53:27,440
Speaker 6: like you and don't necessarily want to or seem as

850
00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:30,640
Speaker 6: if they're not willing to do business with you. An

851
00:53:30,680 --> 00:53:34,359
Speaker 6: ally is someone who can make the transaction happen on

852
00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:37,360
Speaker 6: your behalf. That person needs to be somebody you can trust.

853
00:53:38,280 --> 00:53:42,719
Speaker 6: Everyone should have a history of financial stability. And when

854
00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:44,719
Speaker 6: I say everyone, i'm talking about if you have a

855
00:53:44,760 --> 00:53:47,960
Speaker 6: team of four people, all four people need to have

856
00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:53,920
Speaker 6: a history of financial stability, fiscal responsibility, common sense, and

857
00:53:53,920 --> 00:53:57,080
Speaker 6: congeniality because if you got that one hot head that

858
00:53:57,120 --> 00:53:59,719
Speaker 6: cuts everybody out all the time is not going to

859
00:53:59,760 --> 00:54:03,920
Speaker 6: work for you. Evidence of earned income. People want to

860
00:54:03,960 --> 00:54:08,880
Speaker 6: know where your money is coming from, and you have

861
00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:15,360
Speaker 6: to have documented income, documented ability to show where your

862
00:54:15,560 --> 00:54:18,600
Speaker 6: down payment money is coming from, where the money came

863
00:54:18,600 --> 00:54:22,080
Speaker 6: from for the contributions for your startup. So you have

864
00:54:22,160 --> 00:54:24,400
Speaker 6: to have that evidence of earned income for everybody on

865
00:54:24,480 --> 00:54:27,359
Speaker 6: your team. And you also have to have no conventions

866
00:54:27,400 --> 00:54:30,719
Speaker 6: of fraud or deaf because it's just good business. It

867
00:54:30,719 --> 00:54:33,920

Speaker 6: Have somebody that can help you structure your business appropriately.

881
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:35,160
Speaker 6: You need a license realtor a real estate agent. Unless

882
00:55:35,200 --> 00:55:38,640
Speaker 6: you are an experienced investor that's been investing for a

883
00:55:38,680 --> 00:55:42,480
Speaker 6: long long time. You have a licensed realtor on your team,

884
00:55:43,200 --> 00:55:46,759
Speaker 6: and someone who's seasoned, not somebody who has not done

885
00:55:46,760 --> 00:55:49,520
Speaker 6: any deals, and not somebody that's so seasoned that they're

886
00:55:49,520 --> 00:55:51,440
Speaker 6: too busy to get back to you. They're too busy

887
00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:53,640
Speaker 6: to show you what you want to see. That don't

888
00:55:53,680 --> 00:55:56,239
Speaker 6: want to walk around the land with you. You really do

889
00:55:56,320 --> 00:56:01,839
Speaker 6: need someone who's going to be in the trenches with you, surveyor.

890
00:56:02,400 --> 00:56:07,160
Speaker 6: You have to have somebody who is gonna be able

891
00:56:07,239 --> 00:56:09,960
Speaker 6: to work walk through that land and tell you what

892
00:56:10,040 --> 00:56:14,360
Speaker 6: the perimeters are, where your property lines are. And you

893
00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:16,279
Speaker 6: don't want to have a surveyor who's gonna hit you

894
00:56:16,360 --> 00:56:19,600
Speaker 6: over the head because when you talk about land acreage, again,

895
00:56:19,640 --> 00:56:22,640
Speaker 6: the more acreage you have, the more it costs. And

896
00:56:22,680 --> 00:56:25,080
Speaker 6: when you have a good surveyor like the one I have,

897
00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:29,520
Speaker 6: they will say, oh, I'm the surveyor in this area,

898
00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:31,560
Speaker 6: and you know what matter of fact that land that

899
00:56:31,600 --> 00:56:35,720
Speaker 6: you want to buy that area. I surveyed that piece.

900
00:56:35,760 --> 00:56:38,680
Speaker 6: I surveyed that piece, and I surveyed that piece. So

901
00:56:38,719 --> 00:56:42,839
Speaker 6: instead of surveying all three hundred and sixty four acres,

902
00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:46,120
Speaker 6: I'm gonna go ahead and survey this last piece of

903
00:56:46,160 --> 00:56:49,480
Speaker 6: the front part. And that's gonna save you tons of money.

904
00:56:49,520 --> 00:56:55,480
Speaker 6: Because they being a licensed surveyor, their work is certified.

905
00:56:55,560 --> 00:56:57,560
Speaker 6: They're not gonna they gonna do what they need to

906
00:56:57,600 --> 00:56:59,840
Speaker 6: do because they could lose their license. But it saves

907
00:56:59,880 --> 00:57:04,240
Speaker 6: you money. So be very particular with the surveyor, and again,

908
00:57:04,600 --> 00:57:07,960
Speaker 6: having a surveyor who's familiar with the area. That's one

909
00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:11,480
Speaker 6: of those things you should do is have somebody again

910
00:57:11,640 --> 00:57:14,759
Speaker 6: who's familiar with the area. The same thing for your appraiser.

911
00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:17,480
Speaker 6: You want to get an appraiser of the land who's

912
00:57:17,520 --> 00:57:22,080
Speaker 6: familiar with the area, CPA or bookkeeper. You are going

913
00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:24,840
Speaker 6: to want somebody who's good at keeping track of all

914
00:57:24,880 --> 00:57:29,520
Speaker 6: of these expenses. Particularly when you are talking about building

915
00:57:29,560 --> 00:57:32,240
Speaker 6: and you get into the construction aspect of this thing,

916
00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:35,760
Speaker 6: you definitely need somebody who's keeping track of the books

917
00:57:35,760 --> 00:57:39,480
Speaker 6: and the expenses on your project. The developer or the builder,

918
00:57:39,560 --> 00:57:43,120
Speaker 6: they are responsible for that part two, but they've worked

919
00:57:43,120 --> 00:57:46,840
Speaker 6: hand in hand. Okay, your developer, your builder, they need

920
00:57:46,880 --> 00:57:50,400
Speaker 6: to have a track record. They need to be somebody

921
00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:57,280
Speaker 6: you have verifiable references that they have built projects and

922
00:57:57,320 --> 00:57:59,959
Speaker 6: that they are in good financial standing, that they don't

923
00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:03,320
Speaker 6: old people that they didn't walk off the project and

924
00:58:03,360 --> 00:58:07,080
Speaker 6: didn't finish the project. Do your due diligence on the builder.

925
00:58:07,240 --> 00:58:11,880
Speaker 6: To loan officer, you have to have somebody on your

926
00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:14,600
Speaker 6: team that's going to help you with all the different

927
00:58:14,720 --> 00:58:17,920
Speaker 6: financing stages. And a good loan officer is going to

928
00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:20,480
Speaker 6: help you get qualified from the beginning to the end

929
00:58:20,880 --> 00:58:24,400
Speaker 6: for what it is you need to do your particular project,

930
00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:28,800
Speaker 6: whether that's an intentional community, whether that's farming, whether that

931
00:58:29,040 --> 00:58:35,080
Speaker 6: is building a community for the purpose of building a subdivision.

932
00:58:35,320 --> 00:58:37,840
Speaker 6: Your loan officer is going to work work hand in

933
00:58:37,920 --> 00:58:40,400
Speaker 6: hand with you to make sure that you make it

934
00:58:40,440 --> 00:58:44,240
Speaker 6: to closing. You're closing attorney. That is the person who's

935
00:58:44,320 --> 00:58:46,600
Speaker 6: going to make sure that the title on your land

936
00:58:47,000 --> 00:58:49,400
Speaker 6: is free and clear and that you are not buying

937
00:58:49,520 --> 00:58:55,040
Speaker 6: a piece of property that has encumbrances. Encumbrances are claims

938
00:58:55,080 --> 00:58:58,520
Speaker 6: to the land, claims that oh, my grandmama owned this

939
00:58:58,680 --> 00:59:03,240
Speaker 6: land and somebody stolen and there is a cloud on

940
00:59:03,280 --> 00:59:06,720
Speaker 6: the title because of it. There was something that didn't

941
00:59:06,840 --> 00:59:11,880
Speaker 6: get marked down in the tax assessor's office, so there's

942
00:59:11,920 --> 00:59:14,720
Speaker 6: some issue. Your closing attorney is going to do some

943
00:59:14,800 --> 00:59:18,640
Speaker 6: title research, do the work of ordering your title, and

944
00:59:18,800 --> 00:59:22,240
Speaker 6: that's the person who handles that, and that's the person

945
00:59:22,280 --> 00:59:25,560
Speaker 6: who's going to draw up your mortgage documents. If you're

946
00:59:25,600 --> 00:59:28,920
Speaker 6: going to have a mortgage such as seller financing or

947
00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:33,080
Speaker 6: do an institutional mode, your closing attorney's going to also

948
00:59:33,120 --> 00:59:35,960
Speaker 6: make sure that you walk through every single piece of

949
00:59:36,000 --> 00:59:39,120
Speaker 6: paper before when you're signing it, so you know what

950
00:59:39,160 --> 00:59:43,000
Speaker 6: you're signing. And then finally, once you are done, whatever

951
00:59:43,120 --> 00:59:46,040
Speaker 6: the project is, whatever it is, your building that you

952
00:59:46,120 --> 00:59:48,920
Speaker 6: are closing on, you gotta have a pr agent, a

953
00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:52,120
Speaker 6: marketing team, somebody is going to strategize so that you

954
00:59:52,160 --> 00:59:56,160
Speaker 6: can make sure that your project is a success. Because

955
00:59:56,440 --> 01:00:01,120
Speaker 6: when you're buying land and developing land, and chances are

956
01:00:01,360 --> 01:00:03,640
Speaker 6: you don't know also how to market the land. Most

957
01:00:03,680 --> 01:00:05,840
Speaker 6: of us don't know how to do everything. And you

958
01:00:05,920 --> 01:00:09,840
Speaker 6: want to have the person who has that experience on

959
01:00:09,920 --> 01:00:12,640
Speaker 6: your team and let them do what they do. Okay,

960
01:00:14,160 --> 01:00:16,880
Speaker 6: how to choose your team. When a person shows you

961
01:00:16,960 --> 01:00:20,840
Speaker 6: who they are, believe them. Look at that track record,

962
01:00:21,120 --> 01:00:26,240
Speaker 6: check out reviews, get referrals. It's not rocket science. Go

963
01:00:26,360 --> 01:00:29,400
Speaker 6: with your gut, but also go with the information in

964
01:00:29,480 --> 01:00:32,800
Speaker 6: front of you that you see. If nobody has anything

965
01:00:32,840 --> 01:00:35,680
Speaker 6: good to say about this person, don't you give them

966
01:00:35,680 --> 01:00:40,880
Speaker 6: a chance. You go ahead and find someone who is reputable,

967
01:00:41,280 --> 01:01:01,760
Speaker 6: and that's how you build. About the money, this is

968
01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:05,080
Speaker 6: the financing portion of your land and development. We're gonna

969
01:01:05,080 --> 01:01:09,640
Speaker 6: talk about institutional funding, selling financing, private lenders and crowdfunding.

970
01:01:10,800 --> 01:01:18,960
Speaker 6: Institutional funding. This is where the slides get less cute

971
01:01:19,360 --> 01:01:23,760
Speaker 6: with visuals right, but it's a serious matter. Farmers dot

972
01:01:23,800 --> 01:01:27,840
Speaker 6: gov is a website that I want to tell everybody

973
01:01:27,880 --> 01:01:31,440
Speaker 6: to check out. You might not have any intention of farming,

974
01:01:31,800 --> 01:01:36,760
Speaker 6: but with what's going on with food sovereignty, being able

975
01:01:36,920 --> 01:01:43,040
Speaker 6: to purchase land through the USDA and loan products that

976
01:01:43,080 --> 01:01:48,760
Speaker 6: are available, as well as being able to take advantage

977
01:01:48,800 --> 01:01:51,840
Speaker 6: of any grants and different things that are available with

978
01:01:51,960 --> 01:01:57,200
Speaker 6: food sovereignty projects, it's a no brainer. Look into Farmers

979
01:01:57,240 --> 01:02:01,400
Speaker 6: dot gov. That is a great resource. You are purchasing land.

980
01:02:02,760 --> 01:02:06,120
Speaker 6: Institutional funding is your typical funding. That's when you go

981
01:02:06,160 --> 01:02:13,200
Speaker 6: to Wells Fargo, Bank of America, Chase, or Citizens Trust Bank,

982
01:02:14,160 --> 01:02:18,880
Speaker 6: Unity Bank and you say, I want to buy this

983
01:02:18,960 --> 01:02:21,760
Speaker 6: piece of land, I would like to build a home

984
01:02:21,880 --> 01:02:24,520
Speaker 6: on it, and I would like to sell it. They've

985
01:02:24,560 --> 01:02:28,360
Speaker 6: got the best rates that it's the hardest to get,

986
01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:30,840
Speaker 6: so you're going to need to speak to the multiple

987
01:02:30,920 --> 01:02:34,440
Speaker 6: lenders and you're going to do best by starting with

988
01:02:34,520 --> 01:02:37,920
Speaker 6: a bank that you already have a relationship with. So

989
01:02:38,080 --> 01:02:41,960
Speaker 6: this goes without saying. Before you try your hand at

990
01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:45,760
Speaker 6: investing in any land, you should be credit worthy. You

991
01:02:45,760 --> 01:02:49,360
Speaker 6: should have an exceptional credit score. You should have money

992
01:02:49,600 --> 01:02:53,280
Speaker 6: and savings in the bank. At least you know twenty

993
01:02:53,280 --> 01:02:57,200
Speaker 6: five percent of your disposable income should be saved in

994
01:02:57,240 --> 01:03:01,600
Speaker 6: the bank before you start buying land and investing in

995
01:03:01,600 --> 01:03:07,160
Speaker 6: this way. Yes, you can buy affordable land at affordable

996
01:03:07,200 --> 01:03:12,040
Speaker 6: prices cash outright, and if that's the strategy you want

997
01:03:12,080 --> 01:03:15,280
Speaker 6: to do, by all means, do it. But if you're

998
01:03:15,320 --> 01:03:19,080
Speaker 6: going to do a development project of scale, you're going

999
01:03:19,120 --> 01:03:22,840
Speaker 6: to need institutional funding and to get the best rates

1000
01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:26,920
Speaker 6: and to even be considered by a traditional lender, you

1001
01:03:27,000 --> 01:03:33,560
Speaker 6: are going to need exceptional credit and experience that track record. Again,

1002
01:03:34,000 --> 01:03:36,200
Speaker 6: there's ways to get around it if you don't have

1003
01:03:36,240 --> 01:03:38,680
Speaker 6: a track record and no one on your team has

1004
01:03:38,720 --> 01:03:44,240
Speaker 6: a track record. By partnering strategically with your constructor your

1005
01:03:44,280 --> 01:03:50,520
Speaker 6: excuse me, your builder, your developer, speak with multiple lenders.

1006
01:03:50,560 --> 01:03:54,240
Speaker 6: Set up your LLC again, talk to that strategy, that

1007
01:03:54,360 --> 01:03:59,640
Speaker 6: business consultant, that strategist, that business attorney. Put your LLC

1008
01:04:00,240 --> 01:04:04,640
Speaker 6: into position by having the best, most credit worthy people

1009
01:04:04,800 --> 01:04:10,120
Speaker 6: on your LLC, people who have experience in maybe they

1010
01:04:09,800 --> 01:04:14,120
Speaker 6: have been a general contractor if you have someone in

1011
01:04:14,160 --> 01:04:17,520
Speaker 6: your family or in your friend group. Use the people

1012
01:04:17,520 --> 01:04:20,320
Speaker 6: who are in the best position to be able to

1013
01:04:20,360 --> 01:04:27,680
Speaker 6: go after institutional funding. If you do that, seller financing

1014
01:04:28,240 --> 01:04:31,680
Speaker 6: is the better option if you know you'd have less

1015
01:04:31,680 --> 01:04:32,640
Speaker 6: than perfect credit.

1016
01:04:37,600 --> 01:04:42,280
Speaker 5: No hold on ask because we got to hear that.

1017
01:04:42,360 --> 01:04:45,120
Speaker 5: We got to hear that. The good folks at Zoom

1018
01:04:45,160 --> 01:04:47,040
Speaker 5: something your sound caps going in and out.

1019
01:04:47,200 --> 01:04:51,200
Speaker 8: They're trying to sensor you like your asking. Can you

1020
01:04:51,240 --> 01:04:54,640
Speaker 8: repeat that because yourself, yourself is cutting off like every

1021
01:04:54,680 --> 01:04:56,680
Speaker 8: like ten minutes for like a minute. I don't know,

1022
01:04:56,720 --> 01:04:59,720
Speaker 8: I don't know what's going on, But can you can

1023
01:04:59,760 --> 01:05:01,600
Speaker 8: you still back at the beginning of seller financing?

1024
01:05:01,600 --> 01:05:01,880
Speaker 3: Please?

1025
01:05:02,160 --> 01:05:03,920
Speaker 5: We can't. We can't let that go on muted.

1026
01:05:04,680 --> 01:05:08,720
Speaker 6: Yes, I apologize. I probably have an unstable internet connection.

1027
01:05:08,880 --> 01:05:12,240
Speaker 8: It's all good anytime, anytime. Let you do that again

1028
01:05:12,280 --> 01:05:12,600
Speaker 8: because I.

1029
01:05:14,360 --> 01:05:15,120
Speaker 5: Earners. What's up.

1030
01:05:15,200 --> 01:05:17,680

Speaker 7: tipping is a breeze, and you're out the door before

1051
01:06:24,160 --> 01:06:26,439
Speaker 7: by P and C Bank. A lot of people think

1052
01:06:26,480 --> 01:06:30,360
Speaker 7: podcasts about work are boring, and sure, they definitely can be,

1053
01:06:30,880 --> 01:06:34,120
Speaker 7: but understanding a professional's routine shows us how they achieve

1054
01:06:34,200 --> 01:06:38,400
Speaker 7: their success little by little, day after day. It's like

1055
01:06:38,480 --> 01:06:41,280
Speaker 7: banking with P and C Bank. It might seem boring

1056
01:06:41,280 --> 01:06:44,200
Speaker 7: to save, plan and make calculated decisions with your bank,

1057
01:06:44,600 --> 01:06:47,040
Speaker 7: but keeping your money boring is what helps you live

Speaker 7: boring since eighteen sixty five. Brilliantly Boring since eighteen sixty

Speaker 7: P and C Bank National Association member fdi C.

1062
01:07:05,240 --> 01:07:06,840
Speaker 3: We don't want anybody to miss any information.

1063
01:07:06,960 --> 01:07:09,240
Speaker 8: Like when your sound goes out, we'll just start talking,

1064
01:07:09,440 --> 01:07:12,000
Speaker 8: because it's usually like only for like thirty seconds, So

1065
01:07:12,040 --> 01:07:13,840
Speaker 8: then we'll start talking, and then we could just bring

1066
01:07:13,880 --> 01:07:16,320
Speaker 8: you back into. Just so whenever you hair start talking,

1067
01:07:16,480 --> 01:07:18,400
Speaker 8: just know that your sound cut out, and then we'll

1068
01:07:18,440 --> 01:07:20,200
Speaker 8: just bring you back in when your sound comes back on.

1069
01:07:20,440 --> 01:07:22,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, because I got my notes ash and I'm like, wait,

1070
01:07:22,600 --> 01:07:23,520
Speaker 5: what just happened?

1071
01:07:23,840 --> 01:07:27,920
Speaker 3: Now I get the information hook a crook man. They can't.

1072
01:07:27,960 --> 01:07:28,600
Speaker 5: That's a fact.

1073
01:07:28,880 --> 01:07:30,720
Speaker 7: They can't shout out to every shout out to everybody

1074
01:07:30,760 --> 01:07:32,160
Speaker 7: that has their hand raised. We're gonna get to that

1075
01:07:32,360 --> 01:07:34,560
Speaker 7: when Ashley finis with the presentation, we see the questions.

1076
01:07:34,640 --> 01:07:36,760
Speaker 5: We're gonna get to that, all right, bet.

1077
01:07:37,120 --> 01:07:40,560
Speaker 6: Seller financing, what I was saying is it's usually a

1078
01:07:40,600 --> 01:07:46,600
Speaker 6: better option because seller financing typically does not report to

1079
01:07:46,840 --> 01:07:53,000
Speaker 6: the credit bureaus. Sellers typically just want to get their money,

1080
01:07:53,040 --> 01:07:54,720
Speaker 6: and as long as you pay them, they have no

1081
01:07:54,840 --> 01:07:57,680
Speaker 6: reason to report to the credit bureaus. So that means

1082
01:07:58,080 --> 01:08:01,880
Speaker 6: your debt to income racial not going to change because

1083
01:08:01,960 --> 01:08:05,320
Speaker 6: that debt that you have on that land is not

1084
01:08:05,480 --> 01:08:09,360
Speaker 6: going to be reported, so you know it, but nobody

1085
01:08:09,360 --> 01:08:12,040
Speaker 6: else is gonna know it. So seller financing means you

1086
01:08:12,080 --> 01:08:15,400
Speaker 6: could go and put loans out on twenty properties real

1087
01:08:15,480 --> 01:08:18,320
Speaker 6: quick and start flipping them on how you might see

1088
01:08:18,360 --> 01:08:21,559
Speaker 6: it as an opportunity, and your debt to income ratio

1089
01:08:22,040 --> 01:08:25,320
Speaker 6: is not going to change, and you'll be able to

1090
01:08:25,479 --> 01:08:30,000
Speaker 6: move on your projects or get institutional funding as needed

1091
01:08:30,200 --> 01:08:34,479
Speaker 6: or additional credit cards as needed without these land deals

1092
01:08:34,840 --> 01:08:38,479
Speaker 6: being on your credit report and pulling your debt to

1093
01:08:38,560 --> 01:08:45,280
Speaker 6: income ratio to a lower score. So with seller financing,

1094
01:08:46,360 --> 01:08:50,360
Speaker 6: it's scamming season, so be careful. People will put a

1095
01:08:50,680 --> 01:08:54,559
Speaker 6: picture of a property up at like they are the seller,

1096
01:08:54,880 --> 01:08:57,599
Speaker 6: and you go and you're like, oh, I just bought

1097
01:08:57,880 --> 01:09:01,720
Speaker 6: twenty five acres for five stats, and you did not

1098
01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:05,360
Speaker 6: just buy twenty five acres for five stacks. So make

1099
01:09:05,400 --> 01:09:08,960
Speaker 6: sure you are doing your due diligence, that you're checking

1100
01:09:09,320 --> 01:09:13,040
Speaker 6: the tax records to make sure that the person who

1101
01:09:13,080 --> 01:09:16,880
Speaker 6: says that they are the owner the seller is the seller.

1102
01:09:17,400 --> 01:09:20,599
Speaker 6: Check with the listing agent, make sure that the listing

1103
01:09:20,640 --> 01:09:24,960
Speaker 6: agent is an official broker, and you protect yourself in

1104
01:09:25,080 --> 01:09:31,600
Speaker 6: every former fashion by going through a closing attorney on

1105
01:09:31,800 --> 01:09:36,120
Speaker 6: your seller financing deal. That's how you cover your assets. Okay,

1106
01:09:36,800 --> 01:09:41,240
Speaker 6: don't go do a seller financing deal straight up, and

1107
01:09:42,080 --> 01:09:45,920
Speaker 6: you might not actually end up buying this land, unless,

1108
01:09:45,920 --> 01:09:50,080
Speaker 6: of course, you are again a season investor, a season

1109
01:09:50,200 --> 01:09:53,960
Speaker 6: real estate investor that's used to buying properties and putting

1110
01:09:54,040 --> 01:09:57,800
Speaker 6: deeds in at the tax assessor's office and with the

1111
01:09:57,880 --> 01:10:01,080
Speaker 6: court in the county. If that's it's not you. You

1112
01:10:01,120 --> 01:10:03,479
Speaker 6: need a real estate agent and you need to close

1113
01:10:03,520 --> 01:10:07,599
Speaker 6: an attorney to ensure that your transaction with the seller

1114
01:10:07,640 --> 01:10:12,320
Speaker 6: goes through smoothly. Another note, with seller financing, or what's

1115
01:10:12,360 --> 01:10:21,719
Speaker 6: also known as owner financing, you negotiate with the seller.

1116
01:10:22,439 --> 01:10:27,680
Speaker 6: You can negotiate what you want and they can negotiate

1117
01:10:28,040 --> 01:10:31,400
Speaker 6: what they need. So it could be a twenty percent

1118
01:10:31,479 --> 01:10:34,799
Speaker 6: down payment, it could be a fifty percent down payment.

1119
01:10:35,120 --> 01:10:39,200
Speaker 6: It can be a flat monthly rate of interest only

1120
01:10:39,280 --> 01:10:42,120
Speaker 6: with a balloon payment at the end. So make sure

1121
01:10:42,160 --> 01:10:45,800
Speaker 6: that you do good negotiating so that you get the

1122
01:10:45,840 --> 01:10:51,320
Speaker 6: best financing terms possible so that you don't end up

1123
01:10:51,360 --> 01:10:54,679
Speaker 6: overpaying for this price of land, because if that's the case,

1124
01:10:55,400 --> 01:10:59,559
Speaker 6: you hustling backwards. So negotiate. Make sure that you got

1125
01:10:59,600 --> 01:11:04,040
Speaker 6: your best negotiator doing the negotiating, and you don't lose

1126
01:11:04,040 --> 01:11:09,080
Speaker 6: your shirt because you're financing an exorberate interest rate, you're

1127
01:11:09,080 --> 01:11:12,080
Speaker 6: putting too much money down. Any of those things can

1128
01:11:12,160 --> 01:11:17,719
Speaker 6: be a bad situation, So negotiate, negotiate, negotiate, and make

1129
01:11:17,800 --> 01:11:23,040
Speaker 6: sure final note that the owner owns the property outright. Ideally,

1130
01:11:23,360 --> 01:11:28,280
Speaker 6: if the owner doesn't own the property outright, don't buy it.

1131
01:11:28,560 --> 01:11:33,000
Speaker 6: If the property itself has a mortgage on it, that's

1132
01:11:33,080 --> 01:11:36,559
Speaker 6: going to be more than the down payment you're going

1133
01:11:36,640 --> 01:11:39,920
Speaker 6: to pay, because when you pay that down payment, you

1134
01:11:39,960 --> 01:11:43,320
Speaker 6: want that down payment to clear the mortgage. Noe out.

1135
01:11:43,880 --> 01:11:46,960
Speaker 6: That way, you can end up with the deed in

1136
01:11:47,000 --> 01:11:50,960
Speaker 6: your name from that moment you leave the closing table.

1137
01:11:51,040 --> 01:11:55,040
Speaker 6: That deed being in your name means it's your property.

1138
01:11:55,400 --> 01:12:02,160
Speaker 6: You can get USDA farm benefits, you can get all

1139
01:12:02,200 --> 01:12:04,200
Speaker 6: of the things that you need. But as long as

1140
01:12:04,240 --> 01:12:07,760
Speaker 6: there's a mortgage on that property in that seller's name,

1141
01:12:08,200 --> 01:12:11,479
Speaker 6: this deal is a no go. In most states, you

1142
01:12:11,520 --> 01:12:15,240
Speaker 6: can't have a property and sell it while you still

1143
01:12:15,240 --> 01:12:19,000
Speaker 6: have a mortgage on it, So be mindful that that

1144
01:12:19,160 --> 01:12:22,360
Speaker 6: mortgage needs to get cleared, and if it can't get cleared,

1145
01:12:22,600 --> 01:12:25,040
Speaker 6: it needs to be assumed, and you need to go

1146
01:12:25,080 --> 01:12:28,760
Speaker 6: through the process of legally assuming that mortgage with the

1147
01:12:28,960 --> 01:12:32,080
Speaker 6: mortgage holder and do it the right way because you

1148
01:12:32,200 --> 01:12:37,120
Speaker 6: do not want to lose your money. Private money lenders

1149
01:12:37,520 --> 01:12:41,040
Speaker 6: highest interest rates, hands down, that's not the way to

1150
01:12:41,080 --> 01:12:43,680
Speaker 6: go if you can avoid it, but it's easier to

1151
01:12:43,720 --> 01:12:48,599
Speaker 6: get most cases. It's based on the deal. And you

1152
01:12:48,680 --> 01:12:51,840
Speaker 6: can also get private money from family and friends if

1153
01:12:51,880 --> 01:12:54,920
Speaker 6: you are lucky enough to have people who are financially

1154
01:12:54,960 --> 01:13:00,719
Speaker 6: astute and who have savings and are interested and able

1155
01:13:00,920 --> 01:13:07,320
Speaker 6: to invest in deals like land deills and new construction opportunities.

1156
01:13:07,640 --> 01:13:10,920
Speaker 6: So if you have somebody in your circle, go get

1157
01:13:10,960 --> 01:13:16,160
Speaker 6: that private money. First, negotiate, negotiate, negotiate, win win right,

1158
01:13:17,600 --> 01:13:22,160
Speaker 6: And if you don't have private money available to you

1159
01:13:22,560 --> 01:13:25,640
Speaker 6: in your own personal network, you can go to a

1160
01:13:25,720 --> 01:13:29,559
Speaker 6: hard money lender. Hard money lenders are essentially borrowing the

1161
01:13:29,640 --> 01:13:32,880
Speaker 6: money of all the people in their network to be

1162
01:13:32,960 --> 01:13:37,400
Speaker 6: able to make loans to you at exorberant interest rates.

1163
01:13:38,160 --> 01:13:43,120
Speaker 6: A good interpest rate for somebody who has a pretty

1164
01:13:43,160 --> 01:13:46,080
Speaker 6: good credit score who wants to bus and move before

1165
01:13:46,400 --> 01:13:49,160
Speaker 6: their business has been in business for at least six months.

1166
01:13:49,200 --> 01:13:54,960
Speaker 6: Because typically all of these financing options, except for seller financing,

1167
01:13:55,200 --> 01:13:57,240
Speaker 6: you're going to want to be in business for at

1168
01:13:57,320 --> 01:14:00,680
Speaker 6: least six months, unless you are doing a farming business

1169
01:14:00,680 --> 01:14:04,920
Speaker 6: in which you can use a USDA startup loan to

1170
01:14:05,080 --> 01:14:10,200
Speaker 6: fund your land purchase and your farming operational expenses. But

1171
01:14:10,360 --> 01:14:15,280
Speaker 6: otherwise you are going to need to have been in

1172
01:14:15,360 --> 01:14:20,280
Speaker 6: business for at least six months, unless you're again going

1173
01:14:20,320 --> 01:14:23,720
Speaker 6: with a hard money lender. If not your heart, your

1174
01:14:23,720 --> 01:14:26,599
Speaker 6: heart money lender is going to look at the credit

1175
01:14:26,680 --> 01:14:31,400
Speaker 6: score of the primary or the managing partner. If that

1176
01:14:31,479 --> 01:14:33,920
Speaker 6: person has like a seven hundred credit score or better,

1177
01:14:34,240 --> 01:14:37,360
Speaker 6: you don't have to have been in business for six months. Again,

1178
01:14:37,479 --> 01:14:43,560
Speaker 6: typically the deal will dictate the private money lenders situation

1179
01:14:43,960 --> 01:14:46,640
Speaker 6: where you might not need to have good credit, but

1180
01:14:47,080 --> 01:14:51,040
Speaker 6: you definitely need to go and have these conversations again

1181
01:14:51,439 --> 01:14:55,439
Speaker 6: negotiating with your private money lenders. My favorite private money

1182
01:14:55,520 --> 01:14:59,720
Speaker 6: lender is Direct Lending Partners. They typically do not do

1183
01:15:00,120 --> 01:15:04,760
Speaker 6: deals on land. Most private money lenders or hard money

1184
01:15:04,840 --> 01:15:09,799
Speaker 6: lenders do not do deals on just land, but again,

1185
01:15:10,040 --> 01:15:14,000
Speaker 6: this is America. Anything is possible when you negotiate and

1186
01:15:14,080 --> 01:15:21,160
Speaker 6: open your mouth. Crowdfunding less hoops, less successful crowdfunding. When

1187
01:15:21,160 --> 01:15:26,360
Speaker 6: we started our when we decided to purchase land and

1188
01:15:26,439 --> 01:15:30,000
Speaker 6: we were looking at Toomsboro, we went on to go

1189
01:15:30,280 --> 01:15:36,240
Speaker 6: fund me and we looked and seen about fifteen or

1190
01:15:36,400 --> 01:15:41,880
Speaker 6: twenty crowdfunding campaigns of people trying to fundraise the one

1191
01:15:41,920 --> 01:15:45,880
Speaker 6: point seven million dollars for the city of Tombsborough. Right,

1192
01:15:46,680 --> 01:15:51,400
Speaker 6: crickets on all of the crowdfunding, Like, nobody raised more

1193
01:15:51,439 --> 01:15:55,600
Speaker 6: than like a thousand dollars on any of these crowdfunding

1194
01:15:55,760 --> 01:16:01,120
Speaker 6: website on this GoFundMe. So crowdfunding, while everybody gets really

1195
01:16:01,120 --> 01:16:06,160
Speaker 6: excited about it as an option, it's not usually successful

1196
01:16:06,240 --> 01:16:09,519
Speaker 6: unless you're very strategic and you have a huge marketing

1197
01:16:09,600 --> 01:16:13,679
Speaker 6: campaign and a great story. We were able to raise

1198
01:16:13,760 --> 01:16:16,719
Speaker 6: over eighty seven thousand. We're almost close to our eighty

1199
01:16:16,760 --> 01:16:20,200
Speaker 6: eight thousand dollars goal, and we use that as a

1200
01:16:20,439 --> 01:16:22,920
Speaker 6: kind of like a building fund where we were able

1201
01:16:22,960 --> 01:16:27,599
Speaker 6: to clear our land and put down gravel and you know,

1202
01:16:27,760 --> 01:16:34,680
Speaker 6: lay down areas for us to do our pavilions and

1203
01:16:34,920 --> 01:16:38,160
Speaker 6: our stages and all those types of things. And so

1204
01:16:38,840 --> 01:16:42,320
Speaker 6: that was a long and hard process to raise eighty

1205
01:16:42,360 --> 01:16:45,080
Speaker 6: eight thousand dollars and we still haven't reached our goal.

1206
01:16:45,400 --> 01:16:49,479
Speaker 6: So I crowdfunding is an option. It doesn't take a

1207
01:16:49,479 --> 01:16:54,000
Speaker 6: lot other than a strong story and marketing campaign, but

1208
01:16:54,120 --> 01:16:56,479
Speaker 6: they don't tend to go as far or be as

1209
01:16:56,520 --> 01:16:58,960
Speaker 6: successful as you would like them to be. And it

1210
01:16:59,040 --> 01:17:03,040
Speaker 6: takes a ton of money to be able to genuinely

1211
01:17:03,040 --> 01:17:07,880
Speaker 6: develop large projects, especially when they don't have, you know,

1212
01:17:08,000 --> 01:17:15,120
Speaker 6: connection to certain infrastructure. So crowdfunding is definitely a later choice.

1213
01:17:15,160 --> 01:17:20,240
Speaker 6: And then there is regulation crowdfunding, which you can raise

1214
01:17:20,320 --> 01:17:23,720
Speaker 6: up to one million and seventy thousand dollars. I'm not

1215
01:17:24,040 --> 01:17:29,719
Speaker 6: very familiar with crowdfunding, and I would love if Troy

1216
01:17:29,760 --> 01:17:34,040
Speaker 6: and Rashad could get somebody who has done some crowdfunding

1217
01:17:34,600 --> 01:17:38,840
Speaker 6: in the ey L University at some point, because yeah.

1218
01:17:38,560 --> 01:17:41,400
Speaker 8: Yeah, we did Chriscentegal, Chris Sinegal, and I'm sure he'll

1219
01:17:41,400 --> 01:17:43,680
Speaker 8: come back again and get he could do it.

1220
01:17:43,680 --> 01:17:45,240
Speaker 3: We can do a class on crowdfunding for sure.

1221
01:17:45,439 --> 01:17:45,639
Speaker 9: Yeah.

1222
01:17:46,280 --> 01:17:47,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, he had a very he had a.

1223
01:17:47,560 --> 01:17:50,679
Speaker 8: Very successful crowdfunding campaign that they raised over a million dollars.

1224
01:17:50,800 --> 01:17:54,200
Speaker 6: See what I'm saying, So we I can't speak to that,

1225
01:17:54,360 --> 01:17:58,320
Speaker 6: but that right there, this is how we really start

1226
01:17:58,360 --> 01:18:02,640
Speaker 6: to develop land. So that's something that you guys are

1227
01:18:02,640 --> 01:18:05,479
Speaker 6: gonna come back, have to become earners and come back

1228
01:18:05,520 --> 01:18:09,920
Speaker 6: and get this class when it comes. All right, So

1229
01:18:10,800 --> 01:18:14,960
Speaker 6: let's get to the bill. The discovery period. There's a

1230
01:18:15,000 --> 01:18:20,360
Speaker 6: master planning period, there's a design phase, a construction and marketing.

1231
01:18:21,920 --> 01:18:26,400
Speaker 6: Discovery starting from scratch means you need to discover the

1232
01:18:26,479 --> 01:18:30,599
Speaker 6: limitations and the restrictions of the land. I saw somebody

1233
01:18:30,640 --> 01:18:37,640
Speaker 6: in the comments say something about feasibility studies. That's this

1234
01:18:37,880 --> 01:18:42,000
Speaker 6: moment of discovery, right. You can do a feasibility study

1235
01:18:42,240 --> 01:18:46,280
Speaker 6: before you buy the land, but that's a whole lot

1236
01:18:46,320 --> 01:18:49,880
Speaker 6: of money to put into something and then decide not

1237
01:18:50,000 --> 01:18:54,960
Speaker 6: to buy it or go forth. If you study the area,

1238
01:18:55,080 --> 01:18:58,280
Speaker 6: you do your due diligence, you know what's happening in

1239
01:18:58,320 --> 01:19:02,240
Speaker 6: the community. You've got to clear vision when you purchase

1240
01:19:02,320 --> 01:19:06,320
Speaker 6: that land. You can do your feasibility study after the fact.

1241
01:19:06,439 --> 01:19:12,120
Speaker 6: Because developing land is really a lengthy process. It's not

1242
01:19:12,600 --> 01:19:16,559
Speaker 6: an overnight success type situation. It's going to cost for

1243
01:19:16,640 --> 01:19:20,240
Speaker 6: a civil engineer to come in to study the grading

1244
01:19:20,280 --> 01:19:23,040
Speaker 6: and the slopes of the land. There's gonna be someone

1245
01:19:23,040 --> 01:19:26,320
Speaker 6: who goes and drills into the dirt to see how

1246
01:19:26,640 --> 01:19:31,160
Speaker 6: much weight the dirt can withstand, so you know how

1247
01:19:31,320 --> 01:19:34,720
Speaker 6: high you can build and what you can build and

1248
01:19:34,760 --> 01:19:37,360
Speaker 6: what kind of materials there's going to be best based

1249
01:19:37,439 --> 01:19:43,200
Speaker 6: on the climate. I'm skipping ahead, but ultimately this discovery

1250
01:19:43,280 --> 01:19:47,240
Speaker 6: period is where you're gonna get your topographical survey done

1251
01:19:48,080 --> 01:19:52,880
Speaker 6: and you're gonna want to understand the demographics of the area. Again,

1252
01:19:53,040 --> 01:19:57,879
Speaker 6: what the median income is, our people graduating from college,

1253
01:19:58,000 --> 01:20:02,160
Speaker 6: is the crime rates high? All that good stuff. So

1254
01:20:02,320 --> 01:20:07,080
Speaker 6: that is your discovery period, your master planning period. This

1255
01:20:07,280 --> 01:20:09,880
Speaker 6: is where you're a person that you hired as your

1256
01:20:10,000 --> 01:20:14,439
Speaker 6: master planner looks at where we're gonna put everything at

1257
01:20:14,479 --> 01:20:19,439
Speaker 6: the infrastructure and the roles ingress and egress means how

1258
01:20:19,479 --> 01:20:21,880
Speaker 6: you go into the neighborhood, how you go out of

1259
01:20:22,000 --> 01:20:25,040
Speaker 6: the neighborhood, how you go into your driveway, how you

1260
01:20:25,080 --> 01:20:30,040
Speaker 6: go out of your driveway, waste management, stormwater runoff. They're

1261
01:20:30,040 --> 01:20:33,800
Speaker 6: gonna plan all of these things. You are not the

1262
01:20:33,880 --> 01:20:38,440
Speaker 6: person that does that. There's a master planner, a developer

1263
01:20:38,560 --> 01:20:42,040
Speaker 6: or architect, a civil engineer. There are a team of

1264
01:20:42,160 --> 01:20:45,920
Speaker 6: experts that sit down and do your master planning. If

1265
01:20:45,960 --> 01:20:49,400
Speaker 6: you're doing a large scale project. If you're doing a

1266
01:20:49,520 --> 01:20:52,840
Speaker 6: smaller scale project, you still need the same people, but

1267
01:20:53,000 --> 01:20:55,479
Speaker 6: you might be able to work with a boutique company

1268
01:20:55,760 --> 01:20:58,640
Speaker 6: that has two, three four people. Maybe that we're in

1269
01:20:58,720 --> 01:21:04,000
Speaker 6: the same hats. Master planning happens. Nonetheless, master planning can

1270
01:21:04,040 --> 01:21:07,280
Speaker 6: cost anywhere from one hundred and fifty dollars to seven

1271
01:21:07,360 --> 01:21:11,960
Speaker 6: fifty an hour, depending on the experience of the master planner,

1272
01:21:12,520 --> 01:21:15,320
Speaker 6: and so you could be looking again depending on the

1273
01:21:15,360 --> 01:21:18,679
Speaker 6: amount of the acreage of the project. Are we talking

1274
01:21:18,680 --> 01:21:22,280
Speaker 6: about developing ten acres of land, one acre of land?

1275
01:21:22,560 --> 01:21:26,320
Speaker 6: Are we talking about developing four hundred acres of land?

1276
01:21:26,840 --> 01:21:30,679
Speaker 6: That master plan to lay out those streets, those roads,

1277
01:21:31,040 --> 01:21:35,480
Speaker 6: all of that's designed from the information they got in discovery,

1278
01:21:35,840 --> 01:21:40,120
Speaker 6: from that topography report. They're gonna do all of that,

1279
01:21:40,200 --> 01:21:42,879
Speaker 6: and it can cost anywhere from ten to fifty thousand

1280
01:21:42,960 --> 01:21:47,439
Speaker 6: or more, depending on how much land you are getting

1281
01:21:47,560 --> 01:21:53,600
Speaker 6: planned and who the planner is. Design phase Designing is

1282
01:21:53,640 --> 01:21:58,879
Speaker 6: the next step to your development process. This goes beyond

1283
01:21:59,040 --> 01:22:05,280
Speaker 6: that initial discovery phase into building homes and structures and

1284
01:22:05,400 --> 01:22:11,040
Speaker 6: retail and commercial based on the climate the area, the

1285
01:22:11,080 --> 01:22:14,800
Speaker 6: needs of the citizens. Areas that are prone to like

1286
01:22:14,880 --> 01:22:18,759
Speaker 6: tornadoes and hurricanes, they will require different kind of building

1287
01:22:18,800 --> 01:22:25,439
Speaker 6: materials than places that are dry and don't have those

1288
01:22:25,479 --> 01:22:30,840
Speaker 6: type of climate changes and issues. So all of that

1289
01:22:30,880 --> 01:22:34,599
Speaker 6: can increase the cost of what you're designing. And this

1290
01:22:34,680 --> 01:22:38,240
Speaker 6: is where you can make a lot of money or

1291
01:22:38,280 --> 01:22:41,200
Speaker 6: lose a lot of money because you can overly design

1292
01:22:41,760 --> 01:22:45,000
Speaker 6: and you design something that's too high end for the area,

1293
01:22:45,439 --> 01:22:48,519
Speaker 6: and now you're not selling because it was not the

1294
01:22:48,760 --> 01:22:55,320
Speaker 6: kind of design for this neighborhood, community and culture. Purchasing

1295
01:22:55,400 --> 01:22:59,960
Speaker 6: land where there's wetlands, deep valleys, other tope of gathphical channel.

1296
01:23:00,320 --> 01:23:03,320
Speaker 6: That's going to create larger budgets because now you're talking

1297
01:23:03,320 --> 01:23:06,600
Speaker 6: about building bridges and how you lay in your foundation.

1298
01:23:06,840 --> 01:23:09,599
Speaker 6: So all of that stuff is a part of the

1299
01:23:09,600 --> 01:23:12,240
Speaker 6: design fast and it's going to create and have a

1300
01:23:12,280 --> 01:23:16,519
Speaker 6: certain budget that will change according to the complexity of

1301
01:23:16,560 --> 01:23:26,280
Speaker 6: the design and the uh, what's the word I want

1302
01:23:26,280 --> 01:23:34,400
Speaker 6: to use, the style, the aesthetic of it, Okay, construction.

1303
01:23:34,840 --> 01:23:36,880
Speaker 6: This is the second to the last stage of the

1304
01:23:36,960 --> 01:23:41,240
Speaker 6: rawland development process. In most cases, it's going to be

1305
01:23:41,439 --> 01:23:45,839
Speaker 6: the first year horizontal development. That's the grading of your roles,

1306
01:23:46,000 --> 01:23:50,679
Speaker 6: that's the curves, that's utilities. Eventually, you know you're gonna

1307
01:23:50,680 --> 01:23:54,240
Speaker 6: start building the property from the ground up. When you

1308
01:23:54,520 --> 01:23:58,519
Speaker 6: looking for a contract or your construction team, they're gonna

1309
01:23:58,520 --> 01:24:03,439
Speaker 6: get paid in increment from your construction loan, and once

1310
01:24:04,800 --> 01:24:09,200
Speaker 6: they have gotten all of the construction done, you're ready

1311
01:24:09,200 --> 01:24:12,639
Speaker 6: to go onto the next phase. And construction again can

1312
01:24:12,680 --> 01:24:18,719
Speaker 6: take longer timeframes based on the complexity of the design,

1313
01:24:19,160 --> 01:24:25,040
Speaker 6: the materials. Chant leaks in the supply chain or of

1314
01:24:25,160 --> 01:24:28,439
Speaker 6: trying to get certain materials to you. If you have

1315
01:24:28,880 --> 01:24:32,280
Speaker 6: certain materials that you are using because you're committed to

1316
01:24:32,880 --> 01:24:37,840
Speaker 6: green building, or you have a high end design, all

1317
01:24:37,880 --> 01:24:41,800
Speaker 6: of that can lead to higher budgets and costs. When

1318
01:24:41,880 --> 01:24:46,559
Speaker 6: you're looking for a contractor or contractors, you can google

1319
01:24:47,400 --> 01:24:50,120
Speaker 6: what state, what city you're in. If you want to

1320
01:24:50,200 --> 01:24:54,479
Speaker 6: hire you know a minority contractor, a black contractor. Google that.

1321
01:24:54,680 --> 01:25:02,080
Speaker 6: Put Georgia Minority Contractors Association, put Florida Black Chamber of Commerce,

1322
01:25:02,640 --> 01:25:10,519
Speaker 6: put DC Business League into the results. Call them up

1323
01:25:10,680 --> 01:25:15,160
Speaker 6: and find a reputable contractor if you don't already have

1324
01:25:15,320 --> 01:25:21,439
Speaker 6: someone you know. In branding and marketing, that's the last

1325
01:25:21,439 --> 01:25:27,519
Speaker 6: stage once you've gotten your building done. Before you've gotten

1326
01:25:27,560 --> 01:25:31,360
Speaker 6: your building done, to be perfectly honest, branding and marketing

1327
01:25:31,479 --> 01:25:34,800
Speaker 6: is what's going to sell this community that you just

1328
01:25:35,040 --> 01:25:38,840
Speaker 6: invested your time, energy and money into. Branding is how

1329
01:25:38,840 --> 01:25:41,559
Speaker 6: you sell, tell the story of why you built it,

1330
01:25:41,880 --> 01:25:46,320
Speaker 6: and attract your ideal residents to the community. And marketing

1331
01:25:46,520 --> 01:25:50,760
Speaker 6: is that active placement of materials and formats that will

1332
01:25:50,800 --> 01:25:54,000
Speaker 6: allow them to see that story and get that story

1333
01:25:54,040 --> 01:25:56,760
Speaker 6: in front of the masses so I can show you

1334
01:25:56,840 --> 01:25:58,360
Speaker 6: better than I can tell you that. I'm going to

1335
01:25:58,439 --> 01:26:02,040
Speaker 6: take you to a community right here in Georgia that's

1336
01:26:02,360 --> 01:26:06,720
Speaker 6: dope in marketing. This is called Trillist. This is a

1337
01:26:06,760 --> 01:26:10,040
Speaker 6: community that's been being built over the last ten years.

1338
01:26:10,320 --> 01:26:14,760
Speaker 6: It's actually a community that was founded by a production

1339
01:26:15,000 --> 01:26:21,640
Speaker 6: studio called Pinewood Studios. It's in Fayetteville, Georgia. This marketing

1340
01:26:22,479 --> 01:26:27,720
Speaker 6: is what attracts their ideal client. Their values is what

1341
01:26:27,880 --> 01:26:33,280
Speaker 6: attracts their ideal client. The community that they are building

1342
01:26:33,800 --> 01:26:39,400
Speaker 6: is for makers, entrepreneurs, and storytellers where they can fine

1343
01:26:39,520 --> 01:26:44,280
Speaker 6: fulfillment in every way. This is branding a community tailor

1344
01:26:44,320 --> 01:26:49,040
Speaker 6: made for storytellers. Well, it was a studio that purchased

1345
01:26:49,080 --> 01:26:52,880
Speaker 6: land built it up, similar to what Tyler Perry did

1346
01:26:53,000 --> 01:26:55,759
Speaker 6: when he purchased land in East Point to build Tyler

1347
01:26:55,800 --> 01:27:02,080
Speaker 6: Perry Studios. They built a community that economic development. It's

1348
01:27:02,120 --> 01:27:08,280
Speaker 6: got restaurants in there, homes and so when you are

1349
01:27:09,160 --> 01:27:13,960
Speaker 6: considering land development and what you're buying, things happen in phases.

1350
01:27:14,400 --> 01:27:16,960
Speaker 6: And so I wanted to show you this because when

1351
01:27:17,000 --> 01:27:20,200
Speaker 6: you start talking about doing a land project, you have

1352
01:27:20,280 --> 01:27:22,519
Speaker 6: to have vision and you have to know where you're going.

1353
01:27:22,840 --> 01:27:26,200
Speaker 6: So I wanted to show you, guys Trillis and I'm

1354
01:27:26,200 --> 01:27:28,639
Speaker 6: going to show you got close that door. Please start,

1355
01:27:28,920 --> 01:27:40,080
Speaker 6: thank you, yes man, Sarenbi Georgia again. Marketing. It just

1356
01:27:40,120 --> 01:27:43,240
Speaker 6: looks like the kind of place where you want to live. Right,

1357
01:27:43,360 --> 01:27:49,200
Speaker 6: They got goats. So when you start thinking about your project,

1358
01:27:49,760 --> 01:27:52,320
Speaker 6: begin with the end of mind and think about who's

1359
01:27:52,360 --> 01:27:55,959
Speaker 6: going to live here, and build for them, and build

1360
01:27:56,120 --> 01:27:59,360
Speaker 6: in a way that the story is compelling. That's what

1361
01:27:59,400 --> 01:28:05,080
Speaker 6: we're doing with Freedom Georgia. All right, now, I'm going

1362
01:28:05,200 --> 01:28:08,080
Speaker 6: to take you guys to the final stage. And I

1363
01:28:08,160 --> 01:28:10,719
Speaker 6: got three minutes before we go to questions, some insight

1364
01:28:10,840 --> 01:28:15,280
Speaker 6: and inspiration. Don't wait for opportunities to come, get up

1365
01:28:15,360 --> 01:28:20,360
Speaker 6: and make them, Madam CJ. Walker. The charter chartering a city.

1366
01:28:20,680 --> 01:28:26,200
Speaker 6: Listen if you are interested in chartering a city hit

1367
01:28:26,240 --> 01:28:29,080
Speaker 6: me up. But the reality is, as we begin to

1368
01:28:29,200 --> 01:28:32,680
Speaker 6: be more strategic and work these ideas and principles of

1369
01:28:32,760 --> 01:28:39,800
Speaker 6: group economics and collective economics, and we're building collectively communities

1370
01:28:40,000 --> 01:28:44,280
Speaker 6: that are safe, that are driving the logical next step

1371
01:28:44,600 --> 01:28:47,960
Speaker 6: is a city charter. A city charter is going to

1372
01:28:48,000 --> 01:28:51,679
Speaker 6: open you up for benefits that will give you more

1373
01:28:51,800 --> 01:28:56,240
Speaker 6: control over your community long term when it comes to

1374
01:28:56,880 --> 01:29:02,440
Speaker 6: how your community is developed, police, the zoning, the ordinances,

1375
01:29:02,560 --> 01:29:07,479
Speaker 6: the health outcomes, how money that gets sent down from

1376
01:29:07,760 --> 01:29:12,360
Speaker 6: the federal government to the state government gets distributed is

1377
01:29:12,439 --> 01:29:19,000
Speaker 6: based on these cities and their populations and density. So

1378
01:29:19,720 --> 01:29:23,200
Speaker 6: we really got to look at how being a city

1379
01:29:23,280 --> 01:29:28,240
Speaker 6: and taking these developments where we're building our own infrastructure,

1380
01:29:28,560 --> 01:29:33,519
Speaker 6: building our own culture of shared values. Then we turn

1381
01:29:33,760 --> 01:29:36,960
Speaker 6: go to the next step, which is a city charter

1382
01:29:37,439 --> 01:29:45,120
Speaker 6: and electing officials who are going to represent our values

1383
01:29:45,439 --> 01:29:48,559
Speaker 6: and do what's best for the residents that live in

1384
01:29:48,560 --> 01:29:52,120
Speaker 6: this city. This is called placemaking, is what we're doing.

1385
01:29:52,160 --> 01:29:56,040
Speaker 6: It's not just about land developing. This is about making

1386
01:29:56,320 --> 01:30:02,440
Speaker 6: places where people feel safe, where people have peace, protection, prosperity.

1387
01:30:02,800 --> 01:30:06,680
Speaker 6: And a city is a government structure that allows that

1388
01:30:06,840 --> 01:30:10,000
Speaker 6: to actually happen. So that's our next step. That's what

1389
01:30:10,080 --> 01:30:13,519
Speaker 6: we're going with this. So get strategic, work together with

1390
01:30:13,560 --> 01:30:17,320
Speaker 6: your comrades, with your partners, with your like minded business

1391
01:30:17,320 --> 01:30:22,320
Speaker 6: folks in the area, get with your economic development authority,

1392
01:30:22,800 --> 01:30:26,759
Speaker 6: get with your black chambers of commerces, and let's start

1393
01:30:26,960 --> 01:30:32,200
Speaker 6: building these cities according to our needs, our desires. This

1394
01:30:32,240 --> 01:30:34,920
Speaker 6: is how we be strategic. This is how we do this.

1395
01:30:36,280 --> 01:30:36,599
Speaker 3: All right.

1396
01:30:36,680 --> 01:30:39,320
Speaker 8: Yeah, So that was that was powerful. Thank you, Thank you.

1397
01:30:39,400 --> 01:30:42,519
Speaker 8: That was that was an amazing presentation. So I don't

1398
01:30:42,520 --> 01:30:46,120
Speaker 8: want people to take that likely. It's like, you know,

1399
01:30:46,360 --> 01:30:49,200
Speaker 8: for all the years that we go to school, whether

1400
01:30:49,200 --> 01:30:56,880
Speaker 8: there's elementary, high school, college, even master degree programs. Me personally,

1401
01:30:57,080 --> 01:31:00,360
Speaker 8: I never, you know, was taught the process of buying

1402
01:31:00,439 --> 01:31:03,360
Speaker 8: land and this stuff is. You would think that this

1403
01:31:03,360 --> 01:31:06,200
Speaker 8: would be one of the key things that would consist

1404
01:31:06,320 --> 01:31:09,320
Speaker 8: of an educational experience because we all have to live

1405
01:31:09,400 --> 01:31:12,880
Speaker 8: somewhere and land is the key component of the planet Earth.

1406
01:31:13,439 --> 01:31:17,799
Speaker 8: And it never, it never was actually taught to ninety

1407
01:31:17,920 --> 01:31:23,400
Speaker 8: nine percent of us. So it's amazing that you were

1408
01:31:23,439 --> 01:31:27,920
Speaker 8: able to come on here and teach this and we're thankful,

1409
01:31:28,000 --> 01:31:30,800
Speaker 8: so thank you for that. And you know, it's also

1410
01:31:30,840 --> 01:31:32,800
Speaker 8: amazing that we was able just to even have this

1411
01:31:32,920 --> 01:31:34,799
Speaker 8: platform to actually educate people.

1412
01:31:35,280 --> 01:31:36,760
Speaker 3: And it's the very encouraging thing.

1413
01:31:37,280 --> 01:31:40,720
Speaker 8: And I'm sure everybody is extremely appreciative of it, but

1414
01:31:41,080 --> 01:31:43,400
Speaker 8: do not take it for granted. Sometimes when you when

1415
01:31:43,400 --> 01:31:46,599
Speaker 8: you get things and it's free, you don't fully appreciate it.

1416
01:31:46,640 --> 01:31:49,599
Speaker 8: But it's like, you know, this could have been Harvard,

1417
01:31:49,680 --> 01:31:51,120
Speaker 8: this could have been Yale, this could have been any

1418
01:31:51,240 --> 01:31:55,960
Speaker 8: any level of education. I would I would argue that

1419
01:31:56,080 --> 01:31:58,599
Speaker 8: this was this was right up there and better than

1420
01:31:58,720 --> 01:32:02,800
Speaker 8: when anybody else could have done, whether Oxford, anywhere in

1421
01:32:02,840 --> 01:32:03,280
Speaker 8: the world.

1422
01:32:03,360 --> 01:32:05,679
Speaker 3: So that's that's extremely powerful.

1423
01:32:05,720 --> 01:32:07,320
Speaker 8: And now, like I said, this kind of information can

1424
01:32:07,360 --> 01:32:13,360
Speaker 8: literally change the trajectory of our you know, existence in

1425
01:32:13,400 --> 01:32:17,439
Speaker 8: this country and is something that we have not known.

1426
01:32:17,320 --> 01:32:20,240
Speaker 3: About for hundreds of years, for centuries.

1427
01:32:20,560 --> 01:32:23,799
Speaker 8: So now that we're coming into this information, it's important

1428
01:32:23,800 --> 01:32:27,000
Speaker 8: that a we learn as much as possible, we apply it,

1429
01:32:27,960 --> 01:32:31,080
Speaker 8: and also we work together as a group. So yeah,

1430
01:32:31,120 --> 01:32:34,439
Speaker 8: that's that's something that is extremely extremely powerful.

1431
01:32:34,439 --> 01:32:35,479
Speaker 3: So once again, thank you.

1432
01:32:35,520 --> 01:32:38,000
Speaker 8: So what we're gonna what we're gonna go into now

1433
01:32:38,160 --> 01:32:41,000
Speaker 8: is question answers for about twenty minutes. So once again

1434
01:32:41,040 --> 01:32:45,000
Speaker 8: if anybody joined late. This is a special edition of

1435
01:32:45,000 --> 01:32:48,640
Speaker 8: eyl University. So once a month, every single month. So

1436
01:32:48,640 --> 01:32:49,480

Speaker 3: University, we're educational platform.

1438
01:32:51,240 --> 01:32:54,479
Speaker 8: Outside what you see on the podcast, the podcasts are

1439
01:32:54,720 --> 01:32:58,160
Speaker 8: episodes where you learn a lot. This is more of

1440
01:32:58,200 --> 01:33:02,320
Speaker 8: a hands on learning experience. So every single Wednesday at

1441
01:33:02,320 --> 01:33:06,200
Speaker 8: eight o'clock Eastern Standard time, we bring experts from the

1442
01:33:06,200 --> 01:33:09,719
Speaker 8: field in and they teach a class via zoom and

1443
01:33:09,760 --> 01:33:13,200
Speaker 8: it's on everything everything from how to wholesale real estate,

1444
01:33:13,600 --> 01:33:17,560
Speaker 8: to how to analyze the real estate. They'll investing, cryptocurrency,

1445
01:33:17,880 --> 01:33:19,479
Speaker 8: you name it. We've had a class and we're going

1446
01:33:19,520 --> 01:33:22,960
Speaker 8: to have more classes. And then that's every week. And

1447
01:33:23,000 --> 01:33:27,920
Speaker 8: then every other Sunday is our book club headed up

1448
01:33:27,920 --> 01:33:31,920

Speaker 8: mortgage guy. He has a real estate call. And then

1450
01:33:35,680 --> 01:33:38,760
Speaker 8: once a month I do a financial planning call. So

1451
01:33:38,800 --> 01:33:40,840
Speaker 8: those are all the things that are in existence of

1452
01:33:40,840 --> 01:33:44,599
Speaker 8: EYL University now right now. But as I said, we're

1453
01:33:44,640 --> 01:33:49,080
Speaker 8: actually we're putting Eyo University the undergrad department as you

1454
01:33:49,120 --> 01:33:51,080
Speaker 8: know it, We're gonna we're gonna end it this This

1455
01:33:51,080 --> 01:33:53,360
Speaker 8: will be the last week of Eyo University as you

1456
01:33:53,479 --> 01:33:56,040
Speaker 8: know it. We're taking a winter break for two weeks

1457
01:33:56,080 --> 01:33:58,080
Speaker 8: and then we're coming back in twenty twenty one. We're

1458
01:33:58,120 --> 01:34:01,320
Speaker 8: coming back in twenty twenty one with a whole revamped product.

1459
01:34:01,720 --> 01:34:05,120
Speaker 8: We're gonna have a professor series where we're bringing in

1460
01:34:05,280 --> 01:34:08,800
Speaker 8: experts to teach classes four times a year. So it's

1461
01:34:08,800 --> 01:34:10,880
Speaker 8: not just gonna be one off because sometimes it's hard

1462
01:34:10,920 --> 01:34:13,400
Speaker 8: to learn with just a one off class, So we're

1463
01:34:13,400 --> 01:34:16,720
Speaker 8: gonna do four different classes. This business is gonna teach

1464
01:34:16,720 --> 01:34:19,439
Speaker 8: about taxes, ash cash, you gonna teach about financial literacy.

1465
01:34:19,720 --> 01:34:22,080
Speaker 8: Brandon Rule will teach about real estates, so being will

1466
01:34:22,080 --> 01:34:26,439

Speaker 8: different business topics. And Credit do will teach about the

1469
01:34:38,479 --> 01:34:42,640
Speaker 8: world of credit. And actually I heard it might be

1470
01:34:42,680 --> 01:34:45,720
Speaker 8: interested in being a professor also, so I don't want

1471
01:34:45,720 --> 01:34:48,280
Speaker 8: to put her on the spot, but I.

1472
01:34:48,200 --> 01:34:52,320
Speaker 6: Already said I am down.

1473
01:34:52,520 --> 01:34:54,240
Speaker 8: Let me ask you this, because you're you're a member

1474
01:34:54,280 --> 01:34:56,840
Speaker 8: of uy University, how has your experience been so far?

1475
01:34:56,880 --> 01:34:58,120
Speaker 3: You just joined a couple of days ago.

1476
01:34:58,160 --> 01:35:00,559
Speaker 6: Behind you, it was not a couple of days ago.

1477
01:35:00,600 --> 01:35:03,280
Speaker 6: It's been a couple of weeks, thank you very much.

1478
01:35:03,360 --> 01:35:05,479
Speaker 6: Don't trying to play me like I just signed up,

1479
01:35:05,560 --> 01:35:10,080
Speaker 6: Like I just jumped on your bandwagon. Bro Okay, I

1480
01:35:10,160 --> 01:35:13,080
Speaker 6: actually signed up. After I did the first E Y

1481
01:35:13,280 --> 01:35:17,960
Speaker 6: L University with y'all, one of my partners, Greg Mullen,

1482
01:35:18,040 --> 01:35:23,200
Speaker 6: shot out to him, shout to cav this, shout out

1483
01:35:23,240 --> 01:35:25,920
Speaker 6: to keV. He's also Erner. So I was like, oh,

1484
01:35:25,960 --> 01:35:29,160
Speaker 6: I can't have Kevin and Greg getting all this good

1485
01:35:29,280 --> 01:35:35,240
Speaker 6: information without me. So yeah, it's been a great experience.

1486
01:35:35,360 --> 01:35:37,800
Speaker 6: Like I've just been going hard in the real estate section.

1487
01:35:37,880 --> 01:35:42,400
Speaker 6: But it's like so many classes, Like I'm not even

1488
01:35:42,840 --> 01:35:44,880
Speaker 6: like it's too much. I'm like it's a lot. Like

1489
01:35:45,240 --> 01:35:49,960
Speaker 6: it's stuff. I've watched two classes. I literally sat there

1490
01:35:50,160 --> 01:35:53,840
Speaker 6: like taking notes, and I was blown away by the

1491
01:35:54,000 --> 01:35:57,960
Speaker 6: level of information and insight that I was able to get.

1492
01:35:58,240 --> 01:36:00,479
Speaker 6: As somebody who know a little something, you know, I

1493
01:36:00,520 --> 01:36:03,360
Speaker 6: still was able to learn, which is really cool.

1494
01:36:05,080 --> 01:36:07,920
Speaker 5: We always we're always gonna over deliver an under promise.

1495
01:36:07,960 --> 01:36:09,760
Speaker 5: That's that's that's kind of how we live in right now.

1496
01:36:10,080 --> 01:36:10,719
Speaker 3: And it's like the.

1497
01:36:10,600 --> 01:36:14,360
Speaker 8: Most the most successful people always are investing themselves in uh.

1498
01:36:14,479 --> 01:36:19,200
Speaker 8: But actually obviously she's an extremely intelligent person and she's like, yo.

1499
01:36:19,160 --> 01:36:20,040
Speaker 3: I want to be an earner.

1500
01:36:20,320 --> 01:36:23,519
Speaker 8: I'm not I'm not above being a member of Eyo University.

1501
01:36:23,520 --> 01:36:24,120
Speaker 3: And she joined.

1502
01:36:24,120 --> 01:36:26,639
Speaker 8: I didn't even know she was joining. She joined and

1503
01:36:26,960 --> 01:36:29,760
Speaker 8: she became a member, and she she's studying herself. So

1504
01:36:29,760 --> 01:36:32,400
Speaker 8: that's that's dope, and that's that says a lot. So

1505
01:36:32,439 --> 01:36:34,960
Speaker 8: thank you for that. So we're going to get to questions.

1506
01:36:35,040 --> 01:36:37,400
Speaker 8: But before we do, like I said, this, this is

1507
01:36:37,439 --> 01:36:40,320
Speaker 8: the last thing that we're gonna do for ey University.

1508
01:36:40,439 --> 01:36:44,120
Speaker 8: This this uh this year. On Monday, we're changing it

1509
01:36:44,160 --> 01:36:46,720
Speaker 8: and then we're gonna come back January first. If you're

1510
01:36:46,760 --> 01:36:49,680
Speaker 8: interested in joining Eyo University, Like I said, we're revamping

1511
01:36:49,720 --> 01:36:53,519
Speaker 8: this whole thing. We with the revamp, everything is changing,

1512
01:36:53,520 --> 01:36:56,800
Speaker 8: including the price. The price is gonna double because we

1513
01:36:57,000 --> 01:37:02,280
Speaker 8: have we're paying professors now, we got a full time admin.

1514
01:37:02,640 --> 01:37:04,960
Speaker 8: Everything is changing. We're really really taking it to the

1515
01:37:05,000 --> 01:37:08,439
Speaker 8: next level. If you joined today, it's forty percent off,

1516
01:37:08,960 --> 01:37:11,479
Speaker 8: which is four four hundred dollars for the entire year,

1517
01:37:11,520 --> 01:37:14,880
Speaker 8: including seventy classes, all stuff I just named your grandfathered

1518
01:37:14,920 --> 01:37:15,599
Speaker 8: them for that price.

1519
01:37:15,640 --> 01:37:16,280
Speaker 3: Next year.

1520
01:37:17,960 --> 01:37:20,639
Speaker 8: And yeah, so this is the last forty eight hours.

1521
01:37:20,640 --> 01:37:23,559
Speaker 8: You got forty eight hours before that changes. So if

1522
01:37:23,560 --> 01:37:26,800
Speaker 8: you're interested, I pinned it in YouTube. It's Eyo University

1523
01:37:26,880 --> 01:37:32,720
Speaker 8: dot Com into promo code freedom at the end at checkout.

1524
01:37:32,760 --> 01:37:36,360
Speaker 8: And I mean, like, realistically, four hundred dollars, that's that's

1525
01:37:36,400 --> 01:37:40,200
Speaker 8: like a that's a good dinner with two people in

1526
01:37:40,200 --> 01:37:42,280
Speaker 8: New York City. That's a good dinner, two people, a

1527
01:37:42,280 --> 01:37:44,799
Speaker 8: bottle of wine. So to have this level of education,

1528
01:37:44,920 --> 01:37:49,880
Speaker 8: I think that we there's nothing comparable to it, especially

1529
01:37:49,880 --> 01:37:53,960
Speaker 8: for that price point. I mean, people charge ten thousand dollars,

1530
01:37:54,280 --> 01:37:56,720
Speaker 8: nine thousand dollars for that level of education for a

1531
01:37:56,720 --> 01:38:00,479
Speaker 8: lot less. A lot less actually is.

1532
01:38:00,800 --> 01:38:03,519
Speaker 7: I always say, man, there's there's no platform that has

1533
01:38:03,560 --> 01:38:06,759
Speaker 7: this much information in so many different areas.

1534
01:38:06,800 --> 01:38:08,960
Speaker 5: Man. So like you said, this is this is this

1535
01:38:09,320 --> 01:38:09,839
Speaker 5: in college.

1536
01:38:09,880 --> 01:38:11,800
Speaker 7: This is like two textbooks that you're not even gonna

1537
01:38:11,840 --> 01:38:13,880
Speaker 7: use because they're gonna give you a new version of

1538
01:38:13,920 --> 01:38:15,040
Speaker 7: it the next semester.

1539
01:38:15,200 --> 01:38:16,639
Speaker 3: So Ashley.

1540
01:38:16,720 --> 01:38:20,000
Speaker 8: Ashley's presentation was a book that was actly like a book,

1541
01:38:20,080 --> 01:38:21,680
Speaker 8: like if you if you put that in book for him,

1542
01:38:22,000 --> 01:38:24,280
Speaker 8: that's about one hundred and forty pages.

1543
01:38:24,360 --> 01:38:25,840
Speaker 5: And that was a scaled down version.

1544
01:38:26,320 --> 01:38:28,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's crazy. That's crazy.

1545
01:38:28,360 --> 01:38:30,679
Speaker 8: So so yeah, we're interested in having all you guys

1546
01:38:30,760 --> 01:38:31,479
Speaker 8: join is pinned.

1547
01:38:31,520 --> 01:38:33,000
Speaker 3: I'll put it back into YouTube.

1548
01:38:33,360 --> 01:38:38,040
Speaker 8: It's Eyo University dot Com into promo code freedom, and

1549
01:38:38,400 --> 01:38:40,160
Speaker 8: the price will be doubling. It's the first time the

1550
01:38:40,160 --> 01:38:43,080
Speaker 8: price is ever double. But we can do that in

1551
01:38:43,080 --> 01:38:45,640
Speaker 8: good conscious because we're giving you your heads up. So

1552
01:38:45,680 --> 01:38:48,040
Speaker 8: we're giving your heads up that the price is doubling

1553
01:38:48,800 --> 01:38:51,639
Speaker 8: in two days. So, Troy, let's get a couple of questions.

1554
01:38:52,240 --> 01:38:56,360
Speaker 7: I'm going I'm going to my man. Let's see John Palmer.

1555
01:38:56,360 --> 01:38:57,040
Speaker 7: I'm mute yourself.

1556
01:38:57,040 --> 01:38:57,599
Speaker 5: You've been on mute.

1557
01:38:57,640 --> 01:39:00,000
Speaker 7: He's been putting questions in the chat. He's been really

1558
01:39:00,200 --> 01:39:02,040
Speaker 7: locked in. So John, what's going on?

1559
01:39:02,680 --> 01:39:03,800
Speaker 10: Yeah, sir, are you doing this?

1560
01:39:03,880 --> 01:39:06,599
Speaker 5: Even the fellas?

1561
01:39:04,680 --> 01:39:09,680
Speaker 10: Excellent man, excellent presentation.

1562
01:39:09,800 --> 01:39:11,439
Speaker 5: Actually, I really appreciate.

1563
01:39:11,200 --> 01:39:13,160
Speaker 10: The value you were putting out.

1564
01:39:13,240 --> 01:39:15,120
Speaker 3: So definitely.

1565
01:39:15,640 --> 01:39:19,120
Speaker 10: Uh So, I had a question in regards to which

1566
01:39:19,120 --> 01:39:23,920
Speaker 10: I think actually kind of covered but getting lenders who

1567
01:39:24,000 --> 01:39:27,120
Speaker 10: are to say if it's developed land. I was having

1568
01:39:27,160 --> 01:39:29,559
Speaker 10: a hard time recently trying to find ones who are

1569
01:39:29,600 --> 01:39:33,200
Speaker 10: financing and I had a bad experience with with one

1570
01:39:33,439 --> 01:39:37,320
Speaker 10: in North Carolina. So if you have any type of

1571
01:39:38,120 --> 01:39:41,880
Speaker 10: i say, advice on how to bounce back something like that,

1572
01:39:43,800 --> 01:39:45,680
Speaker 10: I'm I'm all airs to that, but I just want

1573
01:39:45,720 --> 01:39:48,400
Speaker 10: to kind of, you know, share my experience and see

1574
01:39:48,400 --> 01:39:52,759
Speaker 10: if you have drew any alternative ways to finance things

1575
01:39:52,800 --> 01:39:56,520
Speaker 10: as you As she mentioned, it's you know, there's different ways.

1576
01:39:56,200 --> 01:39:59,679
Speaker 5: But it gets you know, it could be an uphill battle.

1577
01:39:59,760 --> 01:40:02,519
Speaker 10: So that was really my question.

1578
01:40:03,160 --> 01:40:07,280
Speaker 6: Yeah, so institution, Thanks John for listening, Thanks for your question.

1579
01:40:07,840 --> 01:40:10,599
Speaker 6: Institutional funding is hard. It's the hardest one to get.

1580
01:40:12,120 --> 01:40:14,479
Speaker 6: You have to be pristine, you have to have a

1581
01:40:14,680 --> 01:40:18,679
Speaker 6: strong business plan, you have to have a track record,

1582
01:40:19,080 --> 01:40:22,160
Speaker 6: and for a lot of folks that ain't us, right,

1583
01:40:22,439 --> 01:40:25,479
Speaker 6: So you have to be strategic by partnering with someone

1584
01:40:25,520 --> 01:40:29,160
Speaker 6: who does have that track record and really putting together

1585
01:40:29,240 --> 01:40:35,320
Speaker 6: a solid proposal for especially affordable housing right options. Because

1586
01:40:35,400 --> 01:40:38,360
Speaker 6: if you're not really talking about what the major need

1587
01:40:38,400 --> 01:40:44,280
Speaker 6: is right now, institutional lenders aren't really interested, especially being

1588
01:40:44,280 --> 01:40:46,759
Speaker 6: as though we're in the midst of a pandemic. These

1589
01:40:46,840 --> 01:40:52,160
Speaker 6: COVID cautions is what people are taking. They don't want

1590
01:40:52,200 --> 01:40:56,240
Speaker 6: to invest in someone who's never done this before. So

1591
01:40:56,320 --> 01:40:59,480
Speaker 6: your best bet is going to go be seller financing

1592
01:41:00,120 --> 01:41:05,120
Speaker 6: going to also be in getting private money, reaching out

1593
01:41:05,160 --> 01:41:07,680
Speaker 6: to your network of people who you know, who like

1594
01:41:07,800 --> 01:41:10,599
Speaker 6: no one trusts you, who know you have a good

1595
01:41:11,040 --> 01:41:15,120
Speaker 6: business mind, and again, having that really solid business plan

1596
01:41:15,479 --> 01:41:17,200
Speaker 6: is how you're going to be able to even attract

1597
01:41:17,240 --> 01:41:21,040
Speaker 6: those people. You can't ask your family and friends for money,

1598
01:41:21,240 --> 01:41:23,679
Speaker 6: and your plans not solid either, Like if you can't

1599
01:41:23,680 --> 01:41:25,240
Speaker 6: get it from the bank, you definitely aint gonna get

1600
01:41:25,280 --> 01:41:29,160
Speaker 6: it from your mama if your plans aren't solid. So

1601
01:41:29,560 --> 01:41:33,679
Speaker 6: you definitely should look to seller financing as an option

1602
01:41:33,800 --> 01:41:36,880
Speaker 6: and just don't give up. Keep plugging at it and

1603
01:41:37,080 --> 01:41:42,960
Speaker 6: refining your plan and talking to more developers, more contractors,

1604
01:41:43,200 --> 01:41:47,880
Speaker 6: get really involved if you're not already with a chamber

1605
01:41:47,920 --> 01:41:51,599
Speaker 6: of commerce or a development authority, so you can start

1606
01:41:51,680 --> 01:41:55,720
Speaker 6: networking and building more solid relationships with some of the

1607
01:41:56,760 --> 01:41:59,679
Speaker 6: institutional funders and people who might be in a position

1608
01:42:00,120 --> 01:42:01,320
Speaker 6: to help you make it happen.

1609
01:42:02,240 --> 01:42:05,760
Speaker 7: Appreciate, appreciate you, John, Thanks ash Oh, we're going to

1617
01:42:19,640 --> 01:42:23,439
Speaker 11: Hey, For everybody that's listening, For everybody that's listening, I

1618
01:42:23,520 --> 01:42:25,720
Speaker 11: just want to piggyback a little bit off of rope

1619
01:42:25,760 --> 01:42:30,440
Speaker 11: for Shad said, man, come and join Wakanda man. Following

1620
01:42:30,960 --> 01:42:34,719
Speaker 11: E y L on social media is just not enough.

1621
01:42:34,800 --> 01:42:40,360
Speaker 11: Following on YouTube is just not enough. Come and join

1622
01:42:40,760 --> 01:42:45,280
Speaker 11: the gang. Like real talk, were waiting on.

1623
01:42:45,280 --> 01:42:50,639
Speaker 5: Y'all facts, facts, my god, real though.

1624
01:42:50,640 --> 01:42:51,599
Speaker 3: We're waiting on y'all.

1625
01:42:52,120 --> 01:42:56,960
Speaker 11: My My question for our teacher is this right here.

1626
01:42:57,800 --> 01:43:01,759
Speaker 11: I'm personally kind of uncomfortable with the concept of pure

1627
01:43:02,000 --> 01:43:06,800
Speaker 11: land investing, right and just just from the perspective of

1628
01:43:07,800 --> 01:43:11,400
Speaker 11: it doesn't produce cash flow immediately. But I know there

1629
01:43:11,439 --> 01:43:15,280
Speaker 11: is a sub market of it, which you kind of

1630
01:43:15,280 --> 01:43:18,200
Speaker 11: spoke to a little bit, and that's the minerals. As

1631
01:43:18,240 --> 01:43:23,200
Speaker 11: far as going into land for the purpose of generating income,

1632
01:43:24,920 --> 01:43:26,680
Speaker 11: and I know that the main way of doing that

1633
01:43:26,880 --> 01:43:30,080
Speaker 11: is through minerals. Is that a difficult thing to accomplish,

1634
01:43:30,080 --> 01:43:34,560
Speaker 11: of focusing specifically on land that has valuable minerals associated

1635
01:43:34,600 --> 01:43:35,560
Speaker 11: with it.

1636
01:43:35,560 --> 01:43:37,960
Speaker 6: It's not that it's hard, it's like anything else that's

1637
01:43:38,000 --> 01:43:40,040
Speaker 6: got a business. You have to know the business. You're

1638
01:43:40,040 --> 01:43:41,760
Speaker 6: going to have to put together a business plan. You're

1639
01:43:41,800 --> 01:43:44,240
Speaker 6: going to have to hire the consultants to people who

1640
01:43:44,280 --> 01:43:46,640
Speaker 6: are going to actually help you to mind for the minerals,

1641
01:43:46,920 --> 01:43:48,960
Speaker 6: and mining is a whole process, and you're still going

1642
01:43:49,040 --> 01:43:51,559
Speaker 6: to need some kind of institutional funding to get the

1643
01:43:51,640 --> 01:43:56,120
Speaker 6: manufacturing or excuse me, the equipment that you're going to

1644
01:43:56,200 --> 01:44:00,360
Speaker 6: need and hire the people and the team to do it. So, yeah,

1645
01:44:00,439 --> 01:44:02,920
Speaker 6: it's not going to be an immediate return on investment.

1646
01:44:02,960 --> 01:44:06,040
Speaker 6: It's going to be more investment. And typically land that

1647
01:44:06,080 --> 01:44:09,320
Speaker 6: does have minerals on it, those minerals have been spoken for,

1648
01:44:09,720 --> 01:44:12,759
Speaker 6: unless you are discovering those minerals for the first time

1649
01:44:12,880 --> 01:44:16,519
Speaker 6: on the land that you're buying, and typically that's going

1650
01:44:16,600 --> 01:44:19,680
Speaker 6: to come out in discovery. And if you come across

1651
01:44:20,000 --> 01:44:23,320
Speaker 6: a precious mineral of some use while you are doing

1652
01:44:23,320 --> 01:44:27,679
Speaker 6: your discovery period checking the soil, drilling and all that jazz,

1653
01:44:28,040 --> 01:44:32,240
Speaker 6: then you'll be able to utilize those mineral rights. But

1654
01:44:32,720 --> 01:44:36,320
Speaker 6: sometimes those industries are all sewn up and people have

1655
01:44:36,520 --> 01:44:39,800
Speaker 6: been working in those industries for so long that they

1656
01:44:39,800 --> 01:44:42,559
Speaker 6: have the ability to potentially box you out. So you

1657
01:44:42,600 --> 01:44:44,960
Speaker 6: just need to do your due diligence when you're looking

1658
01:44:45,000 --> 01:44:46,600
Speaker 6: at that. Everything at the end of the day is

1659
01:44:46,640 --> 01:44:50,240
Speaker 6: going to be do your research, find people you can trust,

1660
01:44:50,600 --> 01:44:54,439
Speaker 6: and be mindful that if you do find minerals, it's

1661
01:44:54,479 --> 01:44:56,400
Speaker 6: going to likely come after the purchase.

1662
01:44:57,520 --> 01:45:01,759
Speaker 5: Gotcha, appreciate you guys. Gotcha, bro I was looking.

1663
01:45:01,800 --> 01:45:04,360
Speaker 7: I was looking on landflip dot com. Man, Texas got

1664
01:45:04,360 --> 01:45:06,200
Speaker 7: a lot of land. We're gonna have to talk.

1665
01:45:06,960 --> 01:45:09,040
Speaker 11: Oh yeah, we got we got hundreds of thousands of

1666
01:45:09,040 --> 01:45:12,080
Speaker 11: acres available in Texas.

1667
01:45:12,160 --> 01:45:14,760
Speaker 6: You might find some oil. So like that's where the

1668
01:45:14,840 --> 01:45:19,280
Speaker 6: mineral rights can't come and play real good. But typically

1669
01:45:19,439 --> 01:45:22,960
Speaker 6: if there was already mineral rights, if they found that

1670
01:45:23,040 --> 01:45:26,559
Speaker 6: mineral right, that oil there, they got that locked up.

1671
01:45:26,720 --> 01:45:29,800
Speaker 6: They're not selling you that land in those mineral rights too.

1672
01:45:30,479 --> 01:45:34,160
Speaker 6: That's just not unless, like it's unheard of. It's possible

1673
01:45:34,240 --> 01:45:36,320
Speaker 6: any days, possible because this is American.

1674
01:45:36,520 --> 01:45:38,960
Speaker 7: Shout to Timmy. In the chat, she said her family

1675
01:45:39,160 --> 01:45:42,759
Speaker 7: has mineral rights on their land. There's an earner with

1676
01:45:42,760 --> 01:45:44,559
Speaker 7: with with the mineral rights. Shout out to you, Timmy,

1677
01:45:44,920 --> 01:45:47,760
Speaker 7: well kind of forever. Right, Let's go to Jennifer Green.

1678
01:45:47,840 --> 01:45:50,040
Speaker 7: I'm mute yourself. You've been on you to what's going on.

1679
01:45:51,400 --> 01:45:56,639
Speaker 6: Hello, Thanks again Ashley for all of the information you shared. So,

1680
01:45:56,800 --> 01:46:01,439
Speaker 6: I have a pretty decent situation going. My father recently,

1681
01:46:01,520 --> 01:46:04,679
Speaker 6: about a year and a half ago, gave me about

1682
01:46:04,720 --> 01:46:10,320
Speaker 6: fifteen acres of land in Georgia. It's cool, thank you.

1683
01:46:11,160 --> 01:46:12,759
Speaker 6: So he he gave.

1684
01:46:12,600 --> 01:46:14,559
Speaker 12: It to me basically and was like, you do what

1685
01:46:14,560 --> 01:46:17,680
Speaker 12: you want to do with it right now. It's in

1686
01:46:17,760 --> 01:46:21,719
Speaker 12: my name and my brother's name, and I'm currently paying

1687
01:46:21,920 --> 01:46:22,920
Speaker 12: just I think my.

1688
01:46:22,960 --> 01:46:25,120
Speaker 6: Taxes every year about five hundred dollars.

1689
01:46:26,280 --> 01:46:29,639
Speaker 12: So basically I'm kind of at a standstill about what

1690
01:46:29,720 --> 01:46:34,439
Speaker 12: i want to do with this land. And being that

1691
01:46:34,479 --> 01:46:36,840
Speaker 12: it's in a a it's in a completely rural area.

1692
01:46:37,760 --> 01:46:41,160
Speaker 12: It's outside of the city limits of Fort Valley, Georgia,

1693
01:46:41,720 --> 01:46:46,360
Speaker 12: which is Little Georgia, and I'm kind of leaning towards

1694
01:46:46,400 --> 01:46:51,000
Speaker 12: the whole situation with like using the land to grow trees.

1695
01:46:51,800 --> 01:46:54,840
Speaker 6: Yes, that was what I was gonna tell you out

1696
01:46:54,880 --> 01:46:58,000
Speaker 6: my mouth. So, yeah, that's what I was going to

1697
01:46:58,080 --> 01:46:58,679
Speaker 6: ask you about.

1698
01:46:58,720 --> 01:47:02,080
Speaker 12: If you had any experience or if you have any resources,

1699
01:47:02,200 --> 01:47:03,600
Speaker 12: I've got some insights.

1700
01:47:03,640 --> 01:47:05,840
Speaker 6: So let me tell you first and foremost, the thing

1701
01:47:05,920 --> 01:47:10,640
Speaker 6: you want to get with is the USDA's Department of Forestry,

1702
01:47:10,720 --> 01:47:15,599
Speaker 6: the Georgia Department of Forestry. You want to also get

1703
01:47:15,600 --> 01:47:19,040
Speaker 6: a farm land number, a Georgia Farmland number with the

1704
01:47:19,080 --> 01:47:25,320
Speaker 6: Georgia Department with the USDA. What you want to do is,

1705
01:47:25,479 --> 01:47:28,439
Speaker 6: if you haven't done so already, you put your land

1706
01:47:28,439 --> 01:47:33,240
Speaker 6: and what's known as a Conservation Use COUVA is what

1707
01:47:33,280 --> 01:47:36,200
Speaker 6: they call it agreement that's going to save you an

1708
01:47:36,240 --> 01:47:39,840
Speaker 6: immense amount of money on your taxes. It's a ten

1709
01:47:39,960 --> 01:47:44,559
Speaker 6: year program. But while you're growing your trees, the Georgia

1710
01:47:44,600 --> 01:47:48,040
Speaker 6: Department of Forestry you will pay you to plant the trees,

1711
01:47:48,520 --> 01:47:51,599
Speaker 6: to grow the trees, and the minute that the trees

1712
01:47:51,920 --> 01:47:56,800
Speaker 6: have matured, you cut those trees down. At the end

1713
01:47:56,880 --> 01:48:00,439
Speaker 6: of your COUVA agreement and you can to do it

1714
01:48:00,479 --> 01:48:01,479
Speaker 6: again or sell the land.

1715
01:48:02,560 --> 01:48:03,000
Speaker 1: Mmmm.

1716
01:48:04,200 --> 01:48:06,720
Speaker 8: That's a whole lot of game, yo, that's a free

1717
01:48:06,720 --> 01:48:08,280
Speaker 8: a whole lot of game. That's a whole lot of

1718
01:48:08,320 --> 01:48:09,080
Speaker 8: game right there.

1719
01:48:09,280 --> 01:48:12,160
Speaker 5: Sell the trees. So it's called a KOVA agreement ce

1720
01:48:12,240 --> 01:48:12,600
Speaker 5: u v A.

1721
01:48:13,320 --> 01:48:16,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's the conservation use agreement. That's your tech how

1722
01:48:17,000 --> 01:48:20,360
Speaker 6: you get text and you save on your text. It's

1723
01:48:20,400 --> 01:48:23,440
Speaker 6: almost sixty percent annually.

1724
01:48:23,840 --> 01:48:26,320
Speaker 8: I hope y'all soaking up this game right here. Man,

1725
01:48:26,360 --> 01:48:29,679
Speaker 8: this is this is crazy. This is crazy. That's crazy.

1726
01:48:30,000 --> 01:48:32,679
Speaker 7: Let's see, Uh, Shannon, were coming to you. I'm you yourself.

1727
01:48:32,840 --> 01:48:34,120
Speaker 7: You've been a muted Jennifer, thank you.

1728
01:48:34,040 --> 01:48:34,599
Speaker 5: For that question.

1729
01:48:38,040 --> 01:48:40,920
Speaker 7: Oh so actually when we give them some time. But

1730
01:48:41,200 --> 01:48:44,040
Speaker 7: there's something we call no fridge breaks. So if you

1731
01:48:44,120 --> 01:48:47,120
Speaker 7: if you, if you got up to go to the

1732
01:48:47,160 --> 01:48:49,120
Speaker 7: fridge and we called on you, then we got we

1733
01:48:49,120 --> 01:48:50,720
Speaker 7: gotta go to the next person. So I'm gonna go

1734
01:48:50,720 --> 01:48:53,400
Speaker 7: to the next person. Uh Neia, Mayah, we coming to you. I'

1735
01:48:53,439 --> 01:48:54,519
Speaker 7: mute yourself. You've been unmuted.

1736
01:48:56,640 --> 01:48:59,160
Speaker 5: Piece to the guys, piece of the guys. You know.

1737
01:48:59,280 --> 01:49:04,000
Speaker 13: I want to thank everybody, especially Uyl. I've learned so much.

1738
01:49:04,080 --> 01:49:05,960
Speaker 13: You know, I've been an earner for about two months.

1739
01:49:05,960 --> 01:49:12,080
Speaker 13: But to get straight to Ashley, my family has land

1740
01:49:12,720 --> 01:49:15,439
Speaker 13: in Georgia, over one hundred acres. We've had at lease

1741
01:49:15,840 --> 01:49:20,160
Speaker 13: on that particular land for three years with a cotton company,

1742
01:49:20,560 --> 01:49:25,040
Speaker 13: King Cotton. The lease is up and now the question

1743
01:49:25,280 --> 01:49:27,600
Speaker 13: is the fact that the land has already been cultivated.

1744
01:49:30,280 --> 01:49:34,920
Speaker 13: Is it still I guess ideal or is it what's

1745
01:49:34,960 --> 01:49:36,840
Speaker 13: the will be the process? Or is there some type

1746
01:49:36,880 --> 01:49:39,639
Speaker 13: of way for us to develop it and build a city.

1747
01:49:41,280 --> 01:49:44,760
Speaker 6: I mean, yeah, it's a cost analysis that you have

1748
01:49:44,840 --> 01:49:45,360
Speaker 6: to look at.

1749
01:49:45,640 --> 01:49:45,800
Speaker 5: Ok.

1750
01:49:46,080 --> 01:49:49,960
Speaker 6: So if you wanted to build and are you you're

1751
01:49:50,000 --> 01:49:52,719
Speaker 6: in Georgia. So it takes six hundred and forty acres

1752
01:49:52,760 --> 01:49:55,679
Speaker 6: to build an actual city. So the one hundred acres

1753
01:49:55,720 --> 01:49:58,519
Speaker 6: for us was just to start, and you gotta get

1754
01:49:58,840 --> 01:50:02,320
Speaker 6: at least a mile rate in order to actually build

1755
01:50:02,400 --> 01:50:06,560
Speaker 6: a city. You can absolutely build a community, a subdivision, development,

1756
01:50:06,720 --> 01:50:09,880
Speaker 6: little town, but for you to get city hood status

1757
01:50:10,200 --> 01:50:13,160
Speaker 6: is going to take a few more factors, and having

1758
01:50:13,439 --> 01:50:17,479
Speaker 6: at least six hundred and forty acres is the land requirement, right.

1759
01:50:17,960 --> 01:50:23,200
Speaker 6: But beyond that the lease, you can continue to lease

1760
01:50:23,240 --> 01:50:28,080
Speaker 6: certain areas and work in phases. So instead of taking

1761
01:50:28,160 --> 01:50:33,599
Speaker 6: all hundred acres and trying to do something new, start

1762
01:50:33,680 --> 01:50:38,160
Speaker 6: with like ten acres and build a little subdivision. Then

1763
01:50:38,240 --> 01:50:40,360
Speaker 6: you see how that goes, and then you do that

1764
01:50:40,439 --> 01:50:44,080
Speaker 6: and then you get some experience because the more experience, right, right,

1765
01:50:44,840 --> 01:50:47,840
Speaker 6: the better rates you get, the more opportunities you get,

1766
01:50:47,840 --> 01:50:51,080
Speaker 6: the more leverage. Right. So I wouldn't jet I would

1767
01:50:51,200 --> 01:50:53,599
Speaker 6: the fact that you have the lease, especially if they

1768
01:50:53,600 --> 01:50:56,479
Speaker 6: plan on renewing the lease, that's money in the hand,

1769
01:50:56,560 --> 01:50:58,920
Speaker 6: Like we always know, a bird in the hand is

1770
01:50:58,960 --> 01:51:03,559
Speaker 6: better than two in the bush. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you

1771
01:51:03,760 --> 01:51:07,400
Speaker 6: definitely want to look at Okay, when I renew this

1772
01:51:07,520 --> 01:51:10,080
Speaker 6: land lease, we're gonna, you know, let's go ahead and

1773
01:51:10,120 --> 01:51:13,120
Speaker 6: subdivide ten acres out because we're gonna go ahead and

1774
01:51:13,160 --> 01:51:18,040
Speaker 6: start developing on this first ten acres in time, you

1775
01:51:18,080 --> 01:51:18,320
Speaker 6: know what.

1776
01:51:18,400 --> 01:51:20,680
Speaker 13: And I really appreciate you saying that, because we were

1777
01:51:20,760 --> 01:51:23,680
Speaker 13: leaning towards that, because we were obviously inspired by the

1778
01:51:23,760 --> 01:51:27,960
Speaker 13: nineteen families purchasing a city saying where this is for us?

1779
01:51:28,240 --> 01:51:30,400
Speaker 13: You know. And I've studied case law for about six

1780
01:51:30,479 --> 01:51:34,000
Speaker 13: years now, and there's actually a case law of a

1781
01:51:34,200 --> 01:51:38,400
Speaker 13: senator in Florida back in like nineteen thirty or something

1782
01:51:38,479 --> 01:51:41,519
Speaker 13: like that. Right, he had a land that turned into

1783
01:51:41,560 --> 01:51:43,559
Speaker 13: a park after his death, but he put it under

1784
01:51:43,600 --> 01:51:47,200
Speaker 13: a trust, and a trust in denshed agreement basically stated, hey,

1785
01:51:47,240 --> 01:51:51,959
Speaker 13: this land is strictly for whites, but if we deemed necessary,

1786
01:51:52,000 --> 01:51:54,920
Speaker 13: we allow other races to you know, participate on our

1787
01:51:55,000 --> 01:51:57,240
Speaker 13: national park. And it got to a point to where,

1788
01:51:57,800 --> 01:51:59,840
Speaker 13: you know, he passed on and then the city had

1789
01:51:59,840 --> 01:52:03,040
Speaker 13: to live out his trust, his indenttional agreement, and they

1790
01:52:03,120 --> 01:52:06,120
Speaker 13: was like, listen, hey, no more blacks is allowed, and

1791
01:52:06,200 --> 01:52:08,680
Speaker 13: blacks were, you know, protesting people was hating him, trying

1792
01:52:08,720 --> 01:52:10,200
Speaker 13: to figure out what why we can't come on this

1793
01:52:10,280 --> 01:52:12,360
Speaker 13: land and fighting it, and they lost in court once

1794
01:52:12,360 --> 01:52:15,240
Speaker 13: they read the indentital agreement saying, hey, this man put

1795
01:52:15,280 --> 01:52:19,040
Speaker 13: this land under a trust and it's specifically for white

1796
01:52:19,200 --> 01:52:19,719
Speaker 13: use only.

1797
01:52:20,080 --> 01:52:20,200
Speaker 5: You know.

1798
01:52:20,360 --> 01:52:23,240
Speaker 13: So once I read that case law, I realized the

1799
01:52:23,360 --> 01:52:27,080
Speaker 13: power and trust and owning the land, you know. So,

1800
01:52:27,479 --> 01:52:30,280
Speaker 13: but I appreciate that though. We really, I really just

1801
01:52:30,360 --> 01:52:30,920
Speaker 13: learned a lot.

1802
01:52:31,320 --> 01:52:33,080
Speaker 5: Thank you, and I appreciate you.

1803
01:52:33,240 --> 01:52:33,439
Speaker 6: Man.

1804
01:52:34,200 --> 01:52:36,080
Speaker 5: We just got a whole social studies lesson. Man.

1805
01:52:36,200 --> 01:52:40,040
Speaker 6: Right, Look, you're like, I'm like, okay, case law.

1806
01:52:41,080 --> 01:52:43,840
Speaker 7: You know, you never know what's going to happen on

1807
01:52:43,920 --> 01:52:46,240
Speaker 7: here many.

1808
01:52:46,160 --> 01:52:49,920
Speaker 3: A case law. What he said, whatever he said I

1809
01:52:49,920 --> 01:52:50,880
Speaker 3: believed at that point.

1810
01:52:51,280 --> 01:52:51,479
Speaker 6: Yeah.

01:54:03,400 --> 01:54:05,680
Speaker 9: I have this great opportunity. I have a lot of

1836
01:54:05,720 --> 01:54:08,240
Speaker 9: privilege right now, and I don't see myself being a

1837
01:54:08,240 --> 01:54:11,200
Speaker 9: city planner forever, and I just want to be really

1838
01:54:11,280 --> 01:54:13,640
Speaker 9: strategic about what I need to learn and what I

1839
01:54:13,720 --> 01:54:15,960
Speaker 9: need to absorb so that I can, you know, make

1840
01:54:16,000 --> 01:54:17,840
Speaker 9: my dreams come true. And I just want to thank

1841
01:54:17,880 --> 01:54:19,720
Speaker 9: you for being like an amazing inspiration.

1842
01:54:20,000 --> 01:54:23,880
Speaker 6: Oh thank you, Leslie. Well, I'm super excited for you, because,

1843
01:54:23,960 --> 01:54:27,160
Speaker 6: like people like you, Leslie, is how we get to

1844
01:54:27,320 --> 01:54:30,719
Speaker 6: build dream cities. You know, like we have to network,

1845
01:54:30,760 --> 01:54:33,280
Speaker 6: we have to be strategic. So one of the first things,

1846
01:54:33,320 --> 01:54:37,320
Speaker 6: if you aren't a part of the Federation of International Communities, Leslie,

1847
01:54:37,880 --> 01:54:41,720
Speaker 6: start there. It's a nonprofit organization that does a lot

1848
01:54:41,760 --> 01:54:46,360
Speaker 6: of work with intentional communities. I just did a wonderful

1849
01:54:46,920 --> 01:54:52,240
Speaker 6: bipod panel with them about living intentionally and so what

1850
01:54:52,320 --> 01:54:56,200
Speaker 6: I would suggest is to start building your strategic partnerships

1851
01:54:56,200 --> 01:54:59,640
Speaker 6: as early as possible, because that's really what's going to

1852
01:55:00,320 --> 01:55:05,320
Speaker 6: be how you succeed in your city planning, having all

1853
01:55:05,360 --> 01:55:09,920
Speaker 6: of your stakeholders and the people who have that expertise

1854
01:55:10,280 --> 01:55:13,839
Speaker 6: to help you build a community with those intentional values

1855
01:55:13,880 --> 01:55:18,920
Speaker 6: that you want. It takes those stakeholders' voices to really

1856
01:55:18,960 --> 01:55:22,520
Speaker 6: flesh out the vision of that plan. And so getting

1857
01:55:22,560 --> 01:55:27,560
Speaker 6: with you know, sustainability communities. One of the things that

1858
01:55:27,600 --> 01:55:33,480
Speaker 6: I'm involved in is the Black Sustainability summit again, those

1859
01:55:33,600 --> 01:55:43,520
Speaker 6: chambers of commerce, the development authority. Just building those strategic

1860
01:55:43,600 --> 01:55:47,520
Speaker 6: partnerships is the first place to start. And getting involved

1861
01:55:47,560 --> 01:55:51,440
Speaker 6: in associations as early as you can, such as the

1862
01:55:51,520 --> 01:55:58,839
Speaker 6: Municipal Corporation Association. Uh, there's the National City the National

1863
01:55:58,920 --> 01:56:02,120
Speaker 6: League of Cities. So get involved in those if you're

1864
01:56:02,160 --> 01:56:04,680
Speaker 6: you aren't already, and take the fact that you are

1865
01:56:04,720 --> 01:56:07,800
Speaker 6: already a city planner and use that to your advantage

1866
01:56:07,800 --> 01:56:10,520
Speaker 6: and get as much personal development as you possibly can

1867
01:56:10,920 --> 01:56:16,720
Speaker 6: and partner strategically with those community activists, those real estate agents,

1868
01:56:16,920 --> 01:56:20,040
Speaker 6: those people who are you know, on the ground, who

1869
01:56:20,200 --> 01:56:22,960
Speaker 6: are going to have relationships with the people that you're

1870
01:56:23,000 --> 01:56:23,840
Speaker 6: placemaking for.

1871
01:56:25,480 --> 01:56:27,880
Speaker 9: Thank you so much, josh Ley. I feel like I

Speaker 8: She got it's.

1880
01:56:49,200 --> 01:56:50,440
Speaker 6: Time to wrap this up.

1881
01:56:50,520 --> 01:56:53,840
Speaker 3: World, it's almost over.

1882
01:56:54,080 --> 01:56:56,520
Speaker 5: We got we'll take one morning. We got special guys

1883
01:56:56,520 --> 01:56:56,840
Speaker 5: coming in.

1884
01:56:56,920 --> 01:56:58,880
Speaker 8: But that's the power I want. I want to all

1885
01:56:58,880 --> 01:57:00,880
Speaker 8: graze over that too. I want to high like that.

1886
01:57:00,880 --> 01:57:02,600
Speaker 3: That's extreme. That's the power of women.

1887
01:57:03,200 --> 01:57:07,400
Speaker 8: She's giving a mastermind presentation while still being a mom

1888
01:57:07,800 --> 01:57:08,800
Speaker 8: with her daughter in bed.

1889
01:57:08,800 --> 01:57:10,160
Speaker 3: She's about to put her daughter to bed.

1890
01:57:10,600 --> 01:57:13,040
Speaker 8: That's extremely that's that's if you really think about it,

1891
01:57:13,040 --> 01:57:17,720
Speaker 8: that's an extremely powerful visual right there. I'm sure her daughter,

1892
01:57:17,800 --> 01:57:20,840
Speaker 8: without even knowing, is soaking up so much information from

1893
01:57:20,880 --> 01:57:24,400
Speaker 8: her mom. And like I said, that's the power of

1894
01:57:24,440 --> 01:57:26,960
Speaker 8: a woman to be able to juggle and do so

1895
01:57:27,040 --> 01:57:30,040
Speaker 8: many different things. You know, if it was me, If

Speaker 8: it was me, I would be extremely stressed out at

1897
01:57:33,520 --> 01:57:36,160
Speaker 8: the moment. I would probably have my son like yo,

1898
01:57:36,680 --> 01:57:39,120
Speaker 8: go play a video game and just chill out for

1899
